This course is designed to meet the development needs of practitioners currently teaching, or supporting, learning within Higher Education or other relevant professional contexts. Higher Education is a rapidly evolving sector and there is an increasing emphasis on the quality of learning and teaching, as well as the need to research.

Course content will enable you to keep up-to-date with new ideas in learning and teaching and with a range of key issues that affect the whole sector. Choosing the right learning and development opportunities as your career progresses will help you keep your knowledge and skills up-to-date and so widen your career opportunities. Education professionals who successfully complete the Postgraduate Certificate, Postgraduate Diploma or MA levels of this course can expect to carry the very latest ideas, and the very best practice into their work to the benefit of themselves, and their students.

The professional development of practitioners alongside their membership of relevant professional organisations will add value, and enhance quality.

From our Cambridge Campus, we only offer the PG Cert in Learning and Teaching (Higher Education). From our Chelmsford Campus, we offer all stages of the award, including the PG Cert, PG Dip and MA in Learning and Teaching (Higher Education)?.
