The CPD-Accredited Tutor Training is for tutors who want to gain foundations in teaching and learning within a supportive professional development community. It will help tutors to think like an educator, and make a real difference for students.

This 4-week online facilitated course combines self-paced content with live online meet-ups to create the ideal blend for adult learners. We limit the size of each cohort, so that you can benefit from 1:1 support from your facilitator and get to know the other learners in your group.

What you need know:

Workshops are Monday evenings at 7.15pm-9pm BST. We combine rich content with group discussions, so please be ready to engage and contribute.
You will need to attend every workshop and complete every task. If you miss a workshop you will need to get in touch with the facilitation team to catch up via a recording.
Training Seminars happen every Monday morning at 10am. These are recommended as a way to enhance your experience and deepen your learning. The seminars are open to alumni, so you can continue to join these meetings and continue to benefit from our professional development community beyond the course.
The CPD-Accredited Tutor Training takes 2-3 hours/ week for 4 weeks to complete.

Syllabus:

Unit 1: Safeguarding for Tutors
Unit 2: Relationship Matters
Unit 3: The Learning Loop (a responsive planning tool)
Unit 4: Barriers for Learning: Special Educational Needs and Disabilities, Mental Health

This course is for you if:

You’re starting out as a tutor
You’re a tutor looking for a refresher course
You’re an agency or organisation leader looking for a proven training solution for a large number of tutors.

Note: This course is particularly effective when followed up with tutor-coaching.

Frequently Asked Questions:

How am I assessed?
How long does it take to complete?
Where will I find the course material?
How will I receive my Certificate?
Can I convert my CPD-Accredited course to a Level 3 in Education and Training?

You can level up to our Level 3 Qualification for Tutors at any time. Units 1-4 are the same on both tracks. The Level 3 continues with “Unit 5: Powerful Feedback” and two assessed pieces. Unit 6 is a Live Topic Review where you will need to deliver a 15 minute review of one of the topics on the course to the rest of your cohort, and observe three sessions delivered by your peers. Unit 7 is a written assessment covering the various aspects of education and training that we will have covered. Both these units are delivered in a low threat and supportive context.
