Course Description
The Level 3 Award in Education and Training (L3 AET) is the recommended choice for anyone wishing to work in the field of education and training. Previously known as the Level 3 Award in Preparing to Teach in the Lifelong Learning Sector (PTLLS course), it is the accredited foundation course in the subject. Our Level 3 Training online course accredited by UK OfQual helps people teach and train in a variety of subject areas.
Often, completing the Level 3 Education and Training qualification is a pre-requisite for teaching and training in both the FE and HE sector. Crucially, all that is required to complete this course is a love for teaching and training as no prior training or experience is essential. This course provides a solid foundation for understanding the principles and practices of teaching and training, whether in the workplace or in an educational setting. Our 100% online-based learning format also enables learners to progress at their own pace.
Unit 1: Understanding roles, responsibilities and relationships in education and training
Unit 2: Understanding and using inclusive teaching and learning approaches in education and training
Unit 3: Understanding assessment in education and training
Written assignments including a teaching demonstration through a micro-teaching assessment
The course offers self paced modules. It can be completed within a week or over a duration of 6 months based on the learner’s own pace. However, the course access expires after a year and a re-enrolment charge is applicable.
