Overview
The Learning and Teaching in Higher Education course at Kingston University is ideal if you want to develop your teaching in line with the current demands and opportunities in higher education teaching and learning. The course is fully delivered online, making it especially appealing for busy in-service teachers who are pressed for time.
The course is designed for those already employed by institutions that deliver higher or further education. It is aimed at individuals who teach and have fewer than three years full time teaching experience or who are involved in supporting learning, such as librarians, learning technologists, academic developers, skills advisers and technicians.
Careers
This course prepares you for working as a teacher and/or facilitator in higher or further education.
The award of a Postgraduate Certificate in Learning and Teaching in Higher Education is recognised by most universities in the UK, and increasingly internationally, as necessary qualifications for teaching in higher education institutions. Additionally the course thoroughly prepares you for every success in applying for the status of Fellow of the Higher Education Academy with the Higher Education Academy, a status recognised by most universities in the UK, and increasingly internationally, as necessary/desirable recognition for teaching in higher education institutions.
