Designed especially for those who want a nationally recognised qualification in order to teach students in further education, sixth form and tertiary colleges, prisons, adult education and work-based learning settings. The programme framework outlines an attractive and innovative approach to teacher education and training that meets the current need for accredited teaching and training qualifications in the diverse post-compulsory sector and the three exit awards proposed reflect this. The Professional Graduate Certificate is aimed at students who hold a degree and all the modules are at level 6. The programme is also delivered at our St Asaph campus* (part-time only). *Subject to validation

The full time (1 year) route comprising of the Professional Graduate Certificate in Education and Postgraduate Certificate in Education will be two days ‘taught delivery’ throughout the academic year. The part-time option, comprising of all three routes, is over two years. Students attend one day per week (1-6pm) for two years and will complete three 20 credit modules in year 1 and three 20 credit modules in year 2. In addition to attendance and study at the University, students will need evidence that they have completed 100 hours of independent teaching across the duration of the one year full-time or two year part-time programmes.
