This AET teaching qualification is considered an industry-standard foundation course for those looking to teach or train. It was formerly the Level 3 Award in Preparing to Teach in the Lifelong Learning Sector (PTLLS course). Most training centres would expect that you have Level 3 Education and Training course before you start teaching in the FE and HE sectors. Moreover, you are not required to have any prior qualifications or experience to start this Level 3 teaching qualification, just a passion for teaching and training.

This Level 3 AET course is delivered through our Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) whereby you are provided online tutor support to successfully complete your course.
All units within this Level 3 Education & Training qualification are internally assessed by our qualified assessors and externally verified by the awarding organisation.

This is the confirmation of their status-https://register.ofqual.gov.uk/Detail/Index/1391?category=organisations&query=focus%20awards.
The Award in Education and Training (AET) was previously known as Preparing to Teach in the Lifelong Learning Sector (PTLLS) under the old QCF framework. Apart from the names, both are essentially the same courses.

No, the Level 3 Award allows the simulation of the lesson. You can deliver your lesson at the workplace/classroom or at home, but you have to have real learners.
Record the session on your smartphone/tablet PC or other camera device, upload it to YouTube or Vimeo and then send us a link.

I like this course content.

Wonderful people, really helpful. I could not have asked for any more for the money they charged. I will definitely come back here for my Assessor course.
Jason Rodriguez –
I found their study material and guides really helpful. I literally sat over a weekend to do most of the work and did not have to contact the tutors at all. Great feeling to be a qualified tutor.
Mehtab Ahmad –
Great value for money.

Highly recommend School of Leadership for their excellent customer care.

I found school of leadership through Google Ads. Their price was really competitive, and they were quick in responding. I mostly studied on my own but the tutor was available when I contacted him twice. Overall, it was a great experience. Thank you so much for all the support.
Zoe Cooper –
It’s been going smooth so far in this course and I hope to complete it soon with the tutor’s help.

The greatest aspect of this program is that you do not need any previous credentials or experience to start it and this equips you with the skills of teaching in the education sector, as is the entry level industry standard qualification.
