Evidencing the personal skills requirements for teachers, tutors and trainers in the lifelong learning sector
Lifelong Learning UK (LLUK), Institute for Learning (IfL), Standards Verification UK (SVUK) and the Department for Innovation, Universities and Skills (DIUS) have released a position statement outlining the intended process for evidencing teachers, tutors and trainers' personal skills in literacy, numeracy and Information and Communication Technology (ICT).
Evidencing teachers' personal skills forms part of the professional formation process for conferral of licensed practitioner status which is due to be launched in September 08 by the IfL with support of partners DIUS, SVUK and LLUK.
Work will now take place to identify eligible and excluded qualifications and other accredited evidence, and to provide a clear process for evidencing these. A process for evidencing personal skills in ICT will be implemented at a later date. This will not prevent teachers from achieving qualified status with IfL.
Further guidance for employers, awarding institutions and individuals will be made available shortly.
