Preparing to Teach in the Lifelong Learning Sector
CIEH Level 3 Trainer Qualification.
Also known as PTLLS Training.
Overview:
By 2010, anyone who teaches courses that are publicly-funded will have to be qualified. This resulted in the award - Preparing to teach in the lifelong learning sector. This PTLLS training qualification introduces the knowledge and skills required by teachers to develop and deliver programmes, provide learning support and take responsibility in managing the learning process in post-16 education.
There are no formal entry requirements for candidates who want to take this qualification; however it is the centre's responsibility to assess, and keep a record, of a candidate's suitability for the programme.
The training programme for the CIEH Level 3 PTLLS course includes the CIEH Level 3 Award in Training Skills and Practice (TSP). It is designed to be delivered in 30 hours of teaching time, not including breaks, and revision and practice sessions, with an additional 30 hours for assimilation, consolidation and assignment planning, development and submission.
Outline PTLLS training programme:
* Understand your own role, responsibilities and boundaries of role in relation to teaching
* Understand appropriate teaching and learning approaches within a specialist area
* Demonstrate your session planning skills - plan, deliver, observe and evaluate a micro-teaching session
* Understand how to deliver inclusive sessions that motivate learners
* Understand the use of different assessment methods
* Understand and analyse the need for accurate record keeping and procedures that can be adopted - including internal and external assessment information

RTA can provide this PTLLS course on site for interested businesses either as the full PTLLS course or the shorter Training Skills & Practise course (The later is useful for in house non public training).
If you already have the Training Skills and Practise qualifcation or the older CIEH Professional Trainer Certificate you can do a shorter PTLLS course ask for information.
As a guide a full PTLLS course on site for six delegates would cost approx £1920 to £2000. The course can be run in 5 consecutive days, though it is often more student friendly to split it over a couple of weeks. We deliver PTLLS training in the North West, we are based in Warrington and so are convenient for Cheshire, Manchester, Merseyside and Lancashire. We will consider PTLLS training further afield.
GREAT NEWS RTA is now also registered with Highfield to deliver PTLLS at Level 3 and 4, delivering at Level 4 gives more choice to our customers.
NEWS FLASH: OPEN L3 / L4 PTLLS COURSE at Warrington. Dates 16th -17th February 2012 and 22nd - 24th February. (5 days in total) The cost is £325 which represents good value for PTLLS training. Contact me to be put on the list.
