Education and training certificates

On the Regulated Qualifications Framework an certificate is defined by its size, not its subject. Certificates at Education Training cover teaching, training, assessing and quality assurance at Level 3 to Level 5; each one is listed on a public register under its own qualification number and is delivered online with tutor support and assignment-based assessment.

The certificates listed here carry between 11 and 36 credits. One credit represents about ten hours of learning, so the credit value tells you roughly how long the qualification takes; the exact figure for each qualification is shown in its facts panel and on the awarding body's register entry.

Start from the role you want: teaching in further education, assessing vocational competence, quality-assuring assessment, or supporting learners. Each course page states who the qualification is for and what it leads to, and the progression ladder on the page shows the next step, so you can pick the certificate that matches where you are now.

Yes. Every certificate at Education Training is delivered online with a tutor, written assignments and no examinations unless the awarding body requires one. You enrol at any time, work through the units at your own pace within the chosen duration, and receive the awarding body's certificate when you complete.
