Education and Training Level 3 Award (Intensive)

This is an introduction to teaching, delivered on a part-time basis, which can help you decide if teaching is the career for you. While it does not qualify you to teach, this qualification covers the knowledge and skills required by teachers in further education and skills sectors, including:

• Roles, responsibilities and relationships in education and training

• Inclusive teaching and learning approaches

• Planning lessons and resources

• Motivating learners

• Assessment of learners and record keeping

• Feedback for learning

There are 30 contact hours (face-to-face teaching). There will be approximately two or three hours of self-study per week, during which time you will need to complete assignments.

The course fee includes face-to-face tuition, assessment, registration and certification fee. If you are already teaching/training and can evidence 30 hours of teaching over the course duration, then you may wish to consider the Certificate in Education and Training.

Assessment is via a portfolio of evidence. This will include assignments for each of the three units, a micro teach session, session plan, evaluations and observation record. Please note that micro-teach sessions will be videoed as part of the end assessment process.
