Overview

Off the shelf (OTS)


The qualification offers an introduction to teaching in the education and training sector. It is a knowledge-based qualification with no teaching practice required and therefore may be taken by individuals who are not in a teaching role.

There is however a minimum requirement to take part in a 'micro teaching' session. This involves planning an observed and assessed teaching session for a group of learners (usually the peer group from the learner's course), delivering and reviewing the session and responding to feedback from the observer and peer group. Trainee teachers who are already in a teaching role may be able to use their workplace teaching for this observed session.

The qualification covers:
• Roles, responsibilities and relationships in education and training
• Inclusive teaching and learning approaches in education and training.
• Assessment in education and training

It can meet the needs of a range of trainee teachers, such as those:
• not currently teaching or training.
• currently teaching and training.
• working as assessors who wish to achieve a qualification that provides an introduction to teaching.

This qualification is a total of 12 credit from the 3 units we have selected. It will be assessed through 8 assessments and 1 micro-teach.

Learners will have 24/7 access to our bespoke virtual learning environment that contains all the assessment material, support material as well as helpful hints and tips and contacts for our qualifications team. This is a 48 Guided Learning Hours (GLH) qualification, this is made up of the virtual sessions attended and directed self-led learning.
There are no re-entry requirements for this qualification.
