Qualifi Level 4 Certificate in Education and Training

The rationale for the Certificate is to provide recognition for those who wish to develop their abilities in the post-16 education and training sector. This includes further education colleges, adult and community education providers, offender education, work-based learning providers, the third/voluntary sector, and independent training organisations.

The qualification will enable learners to become independent, self-directed learners, equipped with the tools and motivation to continue learning, developing, and reflecting on their practice throughout their careers. It is also envisaged that all Qualifi centres will consider this qualification to enhance their teaching knowledge, as well as to provide consistent, standardised assessment reports and appropriate feedback to learners.
