Study the AET with TTC!

The L3 Award in Adult Education and Training (AET) is an internationally recognised Train the Trainer qualification designed to equip those who wish to work in a teaching or training role with the core skills and knowledge to do so.

Formerly known as PTTLs, the Award in Education and Training is a universal (and often preferred) trainer qualification for many organisations employing trainers, or contracting trainer services. Therefore, studying for the AET can really boost your individual CV as a trainer, as well as plug gaps in what the existing ADI qualification provides in terms of education and training knowledge and skill.
