Once you have completed all three units (including the micro teach session as part of Unit 2) to the expected standard then you will receive your certificate, and you will be ready to start in the teaching and training sector!

We typically carry out this training at your venue across 2 to 4 days (exact length of time is dependant on the number of delegates in attendance) however we can also offer this training via distance learning – please see below for details. Our instructors come with many years of experience in training and can tailor the course to suit the individual learning requirements of the delegates.

The distance learning option for the course is done at your own pace with support & guidance from your mentor. All necessary materials will be sent to you once you book the course. Once you book this course, you will be given up to 12 weeks to complete the assignments.

Within the 12 weeks, you need to come in for 1 day Micro-teach and assessment at a training venue or we can arrange your session to be done via Skype (alternate options are available). For the micro teach you will need to deliver the presentation in front of a handful of people and record the session for the instructor to review.
