Role profile

An event assistant is an entry level position, typically working within a team of people in an events company or within the events department of a larger organisation. The role would usually provide support to a number of event planners or project managers by carrying out a diverse range of tasks necessary to plan, organise and deliver an event: for example, searching for the right location and venue for the event; working with the design team on the look and feel of the event; or organising logistics such as transportation and catering.

The length of this apprenticeship is typically 18 months (minimum of 12 months training) + 3 months EPA period.

  • Level 2 English and Maths*
  • A project proposal must be submitted two weeks before gateway, which must be approved by an accessor before an apprentice can proceed to EPA.

*this only applies to apprentices aged 16-18 at the start of their apprenticeship training. For apprentices aged 19+ at the start of their apprenticeship training, achieving L2 English and maths is not mandatory.

  • Project:Ā A work- based/scenario-based event project and report (2,000 to 5,000 words) carried out by the apprentice during the EPA period. Ā The completed project report is reviewed by the employer/training provider and marked by an AIM assessor.
  • Portfolio of evidence:Ā contains evidence from real work activity by the apprentice that has been built up progressively through the apprenticeship. It should complement the project and enable the apprentice to demonstrate those areas of knowledge, skill and behaviours that may not have naturally occurred in their project.
  • Professional discussion:Ā A 45-minute discussion with the AIM assessor and a representative from the apprentice’s employer, that enables the apprentice to talk about their apprenticeship as a whole and their project .

The duration of the assessment from the submission of the project proposal to the potential assessment day is a maximum of 12 weeks and 10 weeks if a six-week project is used.
