Assessing the Skills of the Future

About us

At Notebook Assessment Services our journey demonstrates our commitment, innovation, and passion for education. As a small business we are constantly improving and learning new ways to meet our customer’s needs. Notebook Assessment Services (NAS) was founded in 2020 with a desire to branch into the world of end point assessment. Since our beginnings, NAS has grown into a trusted and established provider in the EPAO sector. We have been on a journey of growth and expansion, creating relationships with many employer providers and receiving award nominations.

Our aims are:

To provide contextualised EPA to support the Armed Forces (with unique requirements re scheduling, equipment, terminology, and access).

To provide a personalised, flexible and responsive service that supports apprenticeship providers.

In 2021 we obtained Ofqual recognition and won contracts to conduct End-Point Assessments for the RAF, Royal Navy and Army. In 2022 we welcomed our first EPA customers in the College sector and in 2023 we expanded the offer to become a fully national EPAO across multiple apprenticeship standards.

Today, Notebook Assessment Services stands as a symbol of innovation and quality with a focus on customer experience. Every assessment we complete we strive for excellence and remain committed to delivering the best to our customers. We are supported by a strong Board, supporting us to push boundaries and achieve our goals.
