Is the PGCertTL programme for me?

The PGCertTL programme is designed for staff who require detailed pedagogic knowledge of learning and teaching. It is intended for staff for whom teaching and learning is a substantive part of their work.

Teaching includes (but is not limited to) design and delivery of live sessions (e.g. seminars/webinars, tutorials, lectures, studio or lab sessions); design of learning resources and activities; assessment design, marking and feedback; provision of support for learning (e.g. demonstrating, tutoring, field trip support, tutorial and seminar support, library and skills support, learning technologist support); dissertation or project support and supervision; course and programme design, and course and programme leadership.

We expect that staff undertaking the PGCertTL programme might be in the following categories:

  • Early career academics e.g. Assistant Professor, Teaching Fellow.

  • Academic-related and/or support staff holding substantive teaching and learning responsibilities.

  • Experienced academics relatively new to UK higher education.

  • Staff with (sometimes significant) teaching-only responsibilities including, for example, within work-based settings.

  • Edinburgh Branch
