About the course
Do you want to inspire the next generation of skilled workers, innovators, educators and business leaders in the city? Are you looking for a way to pass on your industry knowledge whilst training for a new career? This course, formerly known as Preparing to Teach in the Lifelong Learning Sector (PTTLS) is ideal for anyone wanting to become a lecturer, assessor or work-based trainer at a College or in a company involved in post-16 training or post-compulsory education. The Award in Education and Training is an evening course studied over a 12-week period. You will gain the skills and knowledge necessary to begin, or re-focus, a career in teaching for the lifelong learning sector or training within industry. Whilst the course is not a teacher training qualification, it will give you a basic toolkit of teacher training techniques and will encourage you to develop the skills you need to be effective in your new job or current role. If you are already in a teaching role you may wish to consider the Certificate (replacing CTLLS) or the Diploma (replacing DTLLS) in Education and Training.
