Summary

Do you want to improve your teaching skills? If so, this 8-month PG Cert will provide you with an understanding of theories of learning, philosophy and education. This will help you to effectively customise your educational resources, assessments and teaching and learning methods to meet a range of student needs.

Through this short course you will examine professional practice in education. It will assist with your ongoing professional development, including research and enquiry, critical reflection and participation in discourse with relevant communities of practice. This PG Cert Education (Educational Practice) is a great stand-alone qualification and it can also be used as a stepping stone towards the PG Dip Education or full Master of Education (M.Ed.).
