Level 3 Award in Education and Training - AET (Formerly PTTLS)

Course Description:

Pearson BTEC Level 3 Award in Education and Training – AET (Formerly PTTLS)

Our Level 3 Award in Education and Training is a great way to get into teaching.

Teachers play a crucial role in society and can have a huge impact on the lives of their students, making it a worthwhile career. Not only is it a highly satisfying job, it is a profession which is in huge demand at the moment. If you want to make a difference in the world, this is the course for you. It is suitable for those already working in education hoping to gain formal recognition of their skills, and for those with no teaching experience.

This training course will start off by enlightening you on the role, responsibilities and duties of a teacher. You will understand the importance of your presence in the life of students and on how to make a positive change in them using your teaching authority. Inclusive teaching and learning is a very important concept in an educational setting. Therefore, this course has also made it possible for you to learn about it, along with an insight into assessing students and their work.

After the training session, you will be required to perform micro teaching, so that the tutors can assess your teaching skills and to work on the areas you need improvement.
