This course is for trainee teachers and trainers who wish to improve their understanding of teaching.

You will be assessed through ongoing assignments that will take place throughout the course. You will also be observed during your teaching practice, twice by a suitably qualified colleague in your work environment and once by your tutor. The session that is observed by your tutor can be recorded. The two sessions that are observed by a work colleague must be live.

All of your assignments are completed and stored online and, as such, can be accessed from any device with internet access. This allows you to complete your qualification in a flexible manner from home.

You have up to six months to complete this course. This allows you to work at your own pace, without the pressure of tight deadlines.

This course will be studied entirely via distance learning, meaning you will complete your learning either from home or a place that suits you. You will be studying through an online portal which will include interactive modules with associated assignments. You will have access to online personal tutor support to help you throughout the course via email.

Once you have successfully completed this course, you will receive a Level 4 Certificate in Education and Training from Training Qualifications UK (TQUK).
