They can undertake the certification online or face to face with the support of an existing EPICT Authorised Trainer
THEY COLLATE THEIR COLLECTIVE EVIDENCE
Schools need to prove competence in 6 areas
Their EPICT Facilitator will assess the collective evidence
EPICT Facilitators can be expert members of staff or external support
