Teaching & Training
We take great pride in preparing educators for successful and rewarding careers in Further Education teaching with qualifications at Levels 5 and 7.
Teach the next generation; your way
Turn your real-world industry experience into real impact and train to become a teacher in Further Education.
Our nationally endorsed qualifications are designed to equip you with the tools and expertise needed to thrive in a variety of educational environments, including further education colleges, adult and community education, and the public sector.
For those wishing to pursue a career in FE teaching who may not have the entry requirements or the confidence to start at Level 5, there is a Level 3 Express Award available at our Taunton and Bridgwater campuses.
