Programme Description

The Warehouse Operations Supervisor programme is designed to enhance the leadership and operational capabilities of professionals within the warehousing and logistics sectors. It equips learners with the tools to effectively manage teams, optimise processes, and uphold high standards of compliance and safety, ensuring smooth and efficient warehouse operations.

Throughout the programme, learners will develop key skills in people management, scheduling, performance monitoring, and health and safety compliance. They will gain practical knowledge of warehouse-specific practices, including resource planning, customer service, and the use of IT and warehouse management systems. Learners will apply these skills to real-world scenarios, with outcomes assessed during the End Point Assessment (EPA).

This programme aims to build learners’ confidence as leaders, enabling them to boost team performance, improve workflows, and contribute to long-term organisational success. The skills and knowledge gained are highly transferable, equipping learners for a variety of roles within the warehousing and logistics industries.

The programme can be delivered one-to-one, or if an employer has multiple learners, we can provide a closed cohort approach with monthly or quarterly groups, while still offering individual support.

Learners will meet with their tutor once a month for the knowledge-based part of the programme. Between sessions, assignments will be set and completed through our online platform, Smart Assessor. Every 12 weeks a progress review will take place, which line managers should attend, to discuss progress on programme.

Learners must be able to commit to the programme, have the support of your employer and your job role must align with programme requirements to demonstrate the competencies needed to pass the End Point Assessment.

Employers enrolling learners can set their own entry criteria but to be eligible for funding learners must:

  • Have been a UK resident for 3+ years or be part of an EU Settlement Scheme, spending at least 50% of time working in England.
  • Hold a contract of employment.
  • Not be enrolled in another government funded programme.

After the learning phase is completed, the learner, employer, and Intec will meet to determine if you are ready to proceed to the End Point Assessment (EPA). The EPA, conducted by an external End Point Assessment Organisation (EPAO), will evaluate whether you have demonstrated the necessary knowledge, skills, and behaviours to meet the required standards. Learners can achieve a Pass or Distinction based on their performance.

The EPA has three parts:

  Duration Details Weighting
