Overview

This distance learning course provides you with the Professional Development Award (PDA) Technology Enhanced Learning and Teaching.  The course is ideal if you are currently teaching, coaching or mentoring learners through formal and informal learning.

This PDA is also relevant for college lecturers, school teachers, tutors, trainers and other staff who are involved in the delivery of learning in schools, further education, community, voluntary and private training providers. It may also be attractive to you if you are a new member of staff and wish to enhance your practice by making effective use of ICT resources.

The PDA provides you with opportunities to use digital teaching in your work with learners.

This is a distance learning course with no attendance, face-to-face input sessions or face-to-face teaching observations.   

You are not required to attend college during the course but will have a face-to-face or remote induction prior to course start. You will be assessed teaching twice in your own teaching situation.

Minimum entry requirements

Entry requirements are given below, but please note that relevant work experience will be taken into consideration.
