Overview

About this program

This program is in preparation

It is not open for enrolment yet. A program opens for enrolment when its curriculum and courses are in place on the learning platform. We do not announce an opening date before it is set. Register your interest and we will write to you when it opens.

For teachers, assistants and trainers who teach without a degree in education. You study learning, teaching methods and assessment.

Like every Berkshire program, it is built for working adults. Courses you already master through your work are tested and recorded with a grade. You study the rest online, at your own pace, with tasks carried out in your own workplace.
