HETA Launches New Teacher Training Provision for Professionals to Inspire the Next Generation
HETA is proud to launch its new suite of teaching qualifications, designed to help experienced technicians and professionals take their first step into teaching and training.
As sectors continue to face a growing skills shortage, there has never been a greater need for experienced professionals to share and pass their knowledge to the next generation. The City and Guilds Level 3 Award in Education and Training and Level 5 Diploma in Teaching qualifications provide accessible entry and progression routes for those looking to become workplace trainers, instructors or further education lecturers.
With no previous teaching experience required, individuals will develop the knowledge and confidence to plan inclusive and engaging teaching, learning and training sessions; support, assess, and develop learners; and understand the roles and responsibilities of teaching and training within both education and industry.
The courses are ideal for workplace and subject matter experts who are passionate about developing others and making a lasting impact on the future workforce, whether in the workplace or within education.
As part of HETA's commitment to developing outstanding educators, the City and Guilds Level 3 Award in Education and Training provides the first step into a wider teaching pathway. Individuals who wish to continue their professional development can progress onto the AEL Level 3 Assessors Award and/or the Learning and Skills Teacher Apprenticeship and/or the Level 5 Diploma in Teaching qualification providing a recognised route into a rewarding career in technical and vocational education.
With decades of experience developing technicians and engineers across the region, HETA understands the significance of high quality teaching and training. The new teacher training provision builds on this expertise supporting industry and vocational professionals to develop the skills needed to educate, mentor and inspire the next generation.
Iain Elliott, Chief Executive Officer at HETA, said:
"Industries have always been built on experienced people passing on their skills and knowledge. As a training provider, we have a responsibility not only to develop the workforce of tomorrow, but also the people who will teach and inspire them.
This qualification provides an excellent opportunity for experienced professionals to take that first step into teaching and training, whether they want to support others in the workplace or pursue a career in further education. By offering a clear progression pathway through to our Learning and Skills Teacher Apprenticeship and, or Level 5 Diploma in Teaching we're helping to strengthen the future of technical education while ensuring the next generation continues to learn from those with real industry experience."
The first cohort starting in November is now open for enrolment.
If you've ever thought about sharing your knowledge, inspiring future industry professionals,, and giving something back to the industry, there's never been a better time to start.
