Education courses

If you have a passion for teaching, our education, teaching and coaching courses cover everything to do with the learning experience. There is plenty on offer with courses available at all levels, from early years education programmes and specialist training qualifications to assessor and instructor courses. We are dedicated to helping aspiring teachers, teaching assistants and other education support staff to achieve their educational career goals.

Besides the new skills and knowledge that stimulates career progression, many of our students opt to continue their training to become teachers.

For teaching assistants, our three most popular home study courses are listed on the Ofqual Register and they all benefit from the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF) accreditation, a well-recognised endorsement nationwide. RQF qualifications are accepted by schools as proof of knowledge and competence, they often require a work placement period within a relevant educational environment which enables the building of practical skills.

We also offer ‘Lifestyle’ courses, and diplomas which can both help introduce a subject, so you can see if this is right for you, and provide top-up, specialist knowledge for those looking to develop their careers.
