Course overview
The Level 3 Award in Education and Training (RQF) formerly known as PTLLS, has been designed to introduce teaching for individuals who aspire or currently work in adult education. This includes FE colleges, training providers, workplace training departments and/or Local Authorities. It is a nationally recognised qualification and is also often the preference for employers to source as an accredited train-the-trainer qualification. This qualification includes written assignments and a practical micro-teach session, which can be completed remotely.
We do not charge any hidden assessment or certificate fees, unlike many other providers.

After the initial 2-day session you will be asked to complete your written work in your own time ahead of the final half-day session.
We also offer a self-paced distance learning option where students complete this course typically within a few months, but you can complete this in as little as a week. In all cases, students must complete within a maximum of 12 months or extension options are available.
