Competence-based Teaching and Training (City & Guilds/Macmillan Publishing for CAE)

A text to support candidates of the new City and Guilds 7306 competence-based Further and Adult Education Teachers' Certificate (FAETC), RSA teachers' certificates and equivalent teacher and trainer awards. It is written to the revised Training and Development Lead Body (TDLB) standards. Links to these standards are made in the text. The book has a practical, jargon-free, self-help approach, with the aim of helping readers to acquire and demonstrate the skills and understanding needed for their role working with NVQs/SVQs, GNVQs and other competence-based programmes. It also shows how to compile and present evidence of competence in this role in portfolios. The contents follow a logical training cycle: getting started; planning for learning; working with groups; teaching skills; working with individuals; assessing achievement; evaluating achievement. There are many activities, examples and case studies from a wide range of further and adult education teaching and training settings. A first-class companion to David Minton's Teaching Skills in Further and Adult Education, an established bestseller for trainee teachers and trainers.
