IfATE was created in 2017 as an arm’s length body of the Department for Education (DfE). Thousands of employers help us to create and maintain over 600 occupational standards. These sit at the heart of the English skills system. By working with us, employers can shape apprenticeships, T Levels and higher technical qualifications.
