Overview
Features
The Materials Development course is for teachers who want to make great lesson materials for their students or to share with other teachers and the wider ELT community.
The Trinity Certificate for Practising Teachers (Cert PT) builds on the knowledge and classroom teaching experience of working English language teachers. This level 6 qualification sits between an initial Level 5 teaching certificate (such as the CELTA) and an advanced Level 7 diploma qualification (such as the DELTA).
It is for teachers who are already qualified to teach in their country and wishing to improve their specialist knowledge and skills. The Materials Development with Trinity Cert course at International House will also be of interest to schools wishing to maintain best practice and continual professional development for their teaching staff.
