Overview

The Level 3 Award in Education and Training is a nationally recognised introductory teaching qualification for individuals who want to work as teachers, trainers, or instructors in the post-16 education sector. This flexible and fully online course provides the foundational knowledge and skills to begin a teaching career in further education, adult learning, private training organisations, or workplace settings.

Microteaching is required as part of this qualification. Learners will complete written assignments for the knowledge-based units and must also plan, deliver, and do a reflection statement on a microteaching session as part of the practical teaching requirement. This makes the qualification suitable for individuals who want to develop both the theoretical understanding and practical teaching skills needed to begin teaching in the post-16 education and training sector.

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.
