The Pearson Teacher Education and Learning (PTEL) Academy

Master Trainer Certification in Online Training and Facilitation of Adult Learners

The PTEL Academy Master Trainer programs prepare participants to deliver active, research-based, learner-centred professional development.

All programs are purposefully interactive and designed to create a community of learners within the training classroom. PTEL Academy Master Trainer Programs are “designed for transfer” meaning the skills learned can be easily transferred to a live classroom environment providing participants with the opportunity to explore, consolidate and reflect on their learning experience over a sustained period. 

PTEL Academy Certificate in English Language Teacher Development (CertELTD)

Designed by world-class subject-matter experts from Pearson. On successful completion, you will be awarded the First TEFL Certificate in English Language Teaching, accredited by Hunter College, NYC.

The CertELTD helps participants to update, enrich and improve their teaching practice, examining different approaches to teaching English in order to make better decisions for their classes and discovering about different aspects of teaching and learning that they may not have had the chance to explore before.
