Level 3 Award in Education and Training is ideal if you wish to pursue a career in education and training. Formerly known as the Level 3 Award in Preparing to Teach in the Lifelong Learning Sector (PTLLS course), this industry-standard foundation qualification is best for those looking to teach and train. Most training centres in the UK would expect you to have a Level 3 AET qualification before you start to teach in the FE and HE sectors. You are not required to have any prior qualification or experience to start this Level 3 AET course. We are offering this specialised distant learning with expert instruction and guidance which is accredited by UK Ofqual and delivered 100% online.
The course, which is carefully devised and curated, is to be delivered in the span of 3 days. On the first day, Unit 1 of the course will be thoroughly explained, including the roles and responsibilities of teachers/trainers, the training cycle, working with other professionals, legislation, and promoting equality and diversity. Through interactive activities like role plays, class discussions, and a quiz, learners gain hands-on experience and develop essential skills for effective teaching and training.
Unit 3 of the course will be thoroughly discussed on the second day. The discussion includes assessment types, methods, their purpose, and how to adapt to these various assessment methods to meet each learner’s individualised needs. This will be followed by several activities and Q/A sessions.
On the third day, the main focus will be on Unit 2, which involves how to create an inclusive learning environment using different teaching and learning approaches followed by conducting micro-teach sessions. Learners will be taught how to reflect on their practices once they deliver the micro-teach session.
