Summary
This is level 4 course aimed at teachers or trainers who work in the FE and Skills sector in a role which is mainly focused on teaching skills. There is an introduction to theory. We be offering this course via 3 hours sessions on Tuesday afternoons. Candidates in an hourly-paid role (of less than 0.6 FTE/3 days per week), and candidates employed in dual roles such as Lecturer/Assessor or Tutor/Assessor are likely to find this programme better suited to their job role (and the opportunities within it) than the Level 5 Diploma in Education & Training. This is an in-service programme; candidates must have a job-role that supports the Units and assessment of the Level 4 CET on enrolment to the course. A subject-specific mentor is required for all candidates on the Level 4 CET programme.
This course runs on Tuesday afternoons 2 - 5pm and starts in January each year.
