Notebook Assessment Services can assess the Level 3 Business Administrator apprenticeship, providing a personalised, flexible and responsive service that supports apprenticeship providers.

Business administrators have a highly transferable set of knowledge, skills and behaviours that can be applied in all sectors.

- To go through gateway, the following criteria have to be met:
  - The apprentice has achieved English and mathematics at level 2.
  - The apprentice has completed a portfolio demonstrating all of the required knowledge, skills and behaviour of the apprenticeship.

The assessment approach for this standard has three methods:
- Knowledge Test.
- Portfolio-based Interview.
- Project Presentation.

- A 10–15-minute presentation with a further 10-15 minutes for a Q&A session. The apprentice will deliver a presentation on a project they have completed or a process they have improved. This project should be started at month 9 of the apprenticeship and must before completed prior to gateway being triggered. The apprentice will upload this to ACE360 for review.

- 50 equally weighted multiple-choice questions to be completed within 60 minutes. The assessment should be passed before the apprentice moves onto the interview and presentation.

- A 30-45 minute interview, based around the portfolio of learning. The apprentice will upload their portfolio to ACE360 one month prior to the interview date, the portfolio should provide at least one piece of evidence for each of the minimum knowledge, skills and behaviours.
