About NCFE

The National Council for Educational Awarding (NCFE) is a national educational awarding organisation that creates, develops, and accredits a range of widely accepted qualifications and awards, including those for online courses. The NCFE Functional Skills certificate is the best option for students who want to gain useful, transferable skills that will enable them to function freely, with self-assurance, and effectively in the real world.

Upon successful completion of this Level 3 Award in Education and Training Course and passing the internal assessments, and practical teaching assessments, you will be awarded the qualification: NCFE Level 4 Certificate in Education and Training which is valued by all employers in the UK and globally. 

Level 4 qualifications are regarded as advanced learning and are equivalent to the first year of a bachelor's degree.

You can advance to further vocational study and earn a Bachelor of Arts in Education or a BA in Education (BEd). Besides these progression opportunities, you can also enhance your resume and increase your chances of getting hired.

For the Level 4 Certificate in Education and Training qualification, you must be seen teaching in an actual classroom; simulation is not allowed, and your observations must be conducted in an actual classroom.

This witness testimony must be provided by an expert with a Level 4 Certificate in Education and Training. For an additional charge of £175 + VAT for 4 hours, if you'd prefer, we can also assist you by providing an expert witness.

The course is evaluated through the submission of three observations of your teaching in a classroom environment and writing assignments based on the course's sections. You will also be required to provide an evidence log showing that you have completed at least 30 hours of teaching.

Your instructor will provide feedback and the option to resubmit assignments if additional work is required.

The teaching session must be recorded using a smartphone, tablet, or other camera device and uploaded to your web portal in order to be graded. In addition to that, you must also provide product evidence such as lesson plans, teaching materials, and other related paperwork

For the supervised study, 140 hours are allotted. However, the total amount of time we anticipate you to spend on this award, including all the research and writing tasks is 360 hours. These hours can be distributed in any way you desire as you have the choice to complete the course whenever it's convenient for you over the course of a year.

It is not necessary to have finished the level 3 award in education and training before enrolling in this course.

No, this course will not qualify you for the QTLS. But you can take the Level 5 Diploma in Education and Training which will provide you with the opportunity and skills to apply for QTLS.

You have a year to access this course, so you can complete it at your own pace and convenience.

There is no prerequisite in terms of prior knowledge for this training. However, you must complete 30 hours of classroom teaching experience throughout the course to receive your completion certificate.

With no time limit on completion, our online courses are accessible for life. If there is a safe internet connection, every course is fully accessible from a tablet, phone, or laptop.

You will be able to order the NCFE-recognised Level 4 Certificate in Education and Training, which is governed by Ofqual, after completing the assignments and the teaching assessment.

Education and training levels differ in the depth of knowledge and skills acquired. Level 3 is foundational, Level 4 is subject-specific, and Level 5 is for higher expertise. Completing Level 5 can lead to Qualified Teacher Learning and Skills status. To be able to teach Level 2, one must undertake Level 3; for both Level 2 and 3, Level 4 must be completed; and for all three levels, one must take Level 5.

QTS is for teaching up to age 16, while QTLS covers beyond that. QTS is necessary for teaching young students, while QTLS is ideal for teaching at a higher education level. QTS requires an intensive course with work practice, while QTLS requires sector competence and 100 hours of teaching experience.
