Course Overview

Learn the Principles of Impactful Teaching and Build Confidence in Your Practice 

The Focus Awards Level 3 Award in Education and Training (RQF) is an excellent starting point for anyone looking to develop teaching skills and gain a clear understanding of how education and training are delivered effectively. The qualification consists of 4 units and carries 12 credits, all of which must be achieved to gain the award. It has a Total Qualification Time (TQT) of 120 hours and 48 Guided Learning Hours (GLH). 

This qualification builds your knowledge from the ground up, whether you have never taught before or you are putting a formal credential behind the experience you have already been collecting for years. You will start with the fundamentals: your roles and responsibilities as an educator, how professional relationships in teaching actually work, and what safeguarding looks like in a real training environment. 

From there, the course moves into inclusive teaching and learning, arguably one of the most important skills any educator can develop. You will learn how to design and deliver learning experiences that genuinely accommodate the diverse needs of your learners, not as an afterthought, but as a standard practice. This aspect challenges you to think beyond a one-size-fits-all approach and consider how every individual in a learning environment deserves the opportunity to thrive on their own terms.

By the time you finish this qualification, the gap between knowing about teaching and actually understanding it will have closed considerably. Your next step might be entering the classroom for the first time, moving toward a higher teaching qualification, or simply delivering your existing training with greater structure and confidence. Wherever you are headed, the Focus Awards Level 3 Award in Education and Training gives you the knowledge and credibility to get there on solid ground.
