Programme Leader Priti Chopra talks us through our new exciting online postgraduate qualification.
“In an increasingly interconnecting world, global teacher education enables practitioners to develop knowledge and resources that enhances global community and citizenship. Respect for equality, diversity, and inclusion, and to enable everyone to fulfil their potential, are core values that define this programme. It is rooted in principles for teaching practice that grows intercultural communication and learning. Studying the International Postgraduate Certificate in Education (iPCGE) course will enable you, if you are a practitioner with teaching experience, to develop professional competency, as a creative and inclusive educator, through critical reflection and research in a national and global context."
"The programme empowers you to facilitate the holistic development of children and young people. It builds capacity to enhance children and young people’s skills, knowledge, attitude, and capability rooted in lived experience. It aims to strengthen good quality inclusive practice by building knowledge, critical thinking skills and reflective practice to engage diverse children and young people in creating norms to address inequalities, promote social responsibility, and foster equitable relationships within local, national, and global contexts."
This flexible online programme models how teaching practice can integrate digital technology and will equip you with knowledge and skills to work globally as a successful and highly-skilled inclusive educator. You can also obtain 60 Master’s credits that can be used within three to five years (subject to the University’s Recognised Prior Learning (RPL) processes) towards an MA in Education.
