Summary

This course will lead to a Postgraduate Advanced Certificate in Educational Studies. It is a 15-month, part-time practice-based course in educational assessment. The course is a collaboration between the Faculty of Education and Cambridge Assessment Network and is valuable to anyone who uses assessment as part of their professional life, for example teachers, awarding organisation staff, Higher Education practitioners and members of professional bodies.

The course is worth 90 credits at Masters level. Upon completion of the course, students will be eligible to apply to the second year of the Masters of Education (MEd) at the Faculty of Education.

As a course participant, you will develop an in-depth understanding of assessment in a supportive academic environment, and benefit from working on small-scale enquiries that are relevant to your own professional practice. You will also learn from other students, and build networks from beyond your specialist areas of expertise.

Each student takes three units in total. Units 1 and 3 are taken by all students. Unit 2 offers a choice for students, depending on their particular professional interest. Students will select their optional unit during the application process.
