Course Details

This stand-alone advanced professional development course is ideal if you’re a teacher educator who has responsibility for supporting and leading the development of students who are undertaking initial teacher training. We’ll support you to extend and deepen your knowledge and understanding of the key principles of teaching and learning. This course focuses on helping you gain the advanced knowledge and skills you need to perform effectively in the role of teacher educator.

The Advanced Diploma of CPD in Effective Practice in Teacher Education examines a wide range of teaching and learning strategies. By drawing on and focusing on your work-based experiences, you’ll explore how you can employ these strategies in your role as a teacher educator. We’ll also support you to develop your personal inquiry, knowledge and scholarship to enhance your professional practice. These activities will be facilitated through reflection with support from peers and tutors.

You’ll be taught by our welcoming and diverse team of highly experienced, professionally and academically qualified staff. We aim to help you gain a sound understanding of the professional development phases of teachers, teacher identity and teacher educator identity. You’ll explore strategies for supporting trainee teachers to build their professional competencies and professional identity. Together, we’ll consider observations, providing feedback, mentoring and coaching, while keeping a focus throughout on your individual strengths and development needs.

At the University of Bolton, we have a ‘Teaching Intensive, Research Informed’ ethos. This means we aspire to offer student-focused courses that are valued by employers and underpinned by the research knowledge of our high-quality staff.
