Overview

Educational psychology is the study of how people learn and how to teach them effectively. It is a broad field that encompasses a variety of topics, including cognitive development, motivation, social-emotional development, and classroom management. Educational psychologists use their knowledge to help teachers create effective learning environments and to develop instructional strategies that meet the needs of all learners. They also research learning and teaching and provide skilled development to teachers and other educators. Educational psychology is overgrowing, and there is a high demand for talented experts. If you are interested in a career in education, psychology, or human development, then a degree in educational psychology can be a great way to get started.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
