This course will further develop your teaching skills and allow you to reflect on education practices. You’ll gain a qualification that enables you to teach in further, higher or adult education and training and can choose to pursue a general qualification or specialise in English, mathematics or SEN.
Take your teaching skills to the top with our Certificate in Education (Cert Ed). Our Cert Ed provides a conceptual and practical understanding of how to influence teaching, learning and assessment across multiple contexts in the post-14 sector. You will cover an array of learning and pedagogical models and apply them to your personal subjects.
Our modules cover multiple areas of knowledge within the post-14 sector ranging from the psychology of teaching to designing an inclusive curriculum. You will analyse national and international perspectives on learning and pedagogy. You will also research and recommend practices that you can enact in your own classrooms.
Through gaining a broad understanding of different teaching methods and practices, with the option to pursue specialist pathways, you’ll apply your newly acquired skills and experience to your professional context.
