They have been designed to develop and accredit the breadth of knowledge and skills required by teachers to develop and manage learning programmes and undertake a high level of responsibility in managing the learning process. They aim to develop candidates' skills and knowledge and to recognise their achievements in a practical way that is relevant to the work context and reflects the professional values of teachers in the FE environment. It is anticipated that much of the practical evidence required to meet the assessment requirements of the qualification will be naturally occurring. The qualification has been designed to be context-free and, therefore, meets the needs of teachers working across all subject/vocational areas. The qualifications have been designed to meet the Department for Education and Skills' requirement that all teachers in further education must achieve nationally recognised teacher's qualifications. They now appear on the Further Education National Training Organisation's list of endorsed qualifications. The OCR Level 4 Certificate in FE Teaching, at all three stages, is based on the FENTO Standards for Teaching and Supporting Learning in FE. Target Audience These qualifications will be appropriate for those who wish to gain a teaching qualification in a post-16 context. They will meet the needs of intending teachers and those who are already employed in a teaching position (either full-time or part-time).
