JTL Assessment
The next stage of the application process is to take the JTL Initial Assessment. This has been designed and developed by the Basic Skills Agency and will demonstrate whether a candidate has the potential to successfully complete their JTL apprenticeship.
The assessment is in three main parts:
- Literacy Assessment
- Numeracy Assessment
- Aptitude Test
There is also a short free-writing exercise, which allows candidates to write a couple of paragraphs in support of their application.
They need to pass all three papers at the same time. Only two attempts at the assessment are permitted in any one year. If they don't pass both literacy, numeracy and aptitude at their first attempt, they are only allowed one re-sit, when they must again take and pass all three sections.
We will contact candidates when a JTL Assessment session has been arranged to take place in their local area, usually February and August, and invite them to attend. If necessary your Training Officer will arrange an assessment for the person you have in mind.
Candidates cannot be invited to a JTL assessment session until they have provided evidence that they do not suffer from colour deficiency.
