PTLLS Training via Virtual Live Classroom
The Get Licensed team are really excited to be the only training provider in the UK who will be offering remote training programs and e-learning initiatives for PTLLS. Firstly let’s analyse exactly what PTLLS is all about and exactly what it means.
PTLLS stands for Preparing to Teach in the Life Long Learning Sector which relates to teaching in what’s known as ‘post compulsory’ education. In simple terms this means any instruction or learning beyond the obligatory time at school, so basically the PTLLS qualification is not a relevant qualification for teaching school children.
You’re no doubt aware of the old cliché ‘those who can’t, teach’ in the case of training to teach in the Security Sector this old chestnut is far from the truth. Teaching is not a profession that everyone is necessarily cut out for, the idea of being faced with thirty or more teenagers in a classroom environment is enough to have anyone running for the hills – fortunately teaching adults is slightly different and the outcomes are generally more decisive.
When adults decide to embark on ‘post compulsory’ education, they tend to be more focused and dedicated to the curriculum, after all they are paying for expert tuition so they are far more likely to be determined to succeed in their chosen course – this rule applies to your training as a teacher too.
Teaching has attracted a lot of interest recently, especially as the competition for other private sector professions is so stiff. The Teacher Training Academy project run by Get Licensed has grown from the unrivalled reputation Get Licensed have achieved in preparing candidates for roles in the security industry, and this first-class status is now being applied to their teacher training program.
Whilst Get Licensed has identified all the priorities needed to prepare candidates as expert tutors via their academy, they are never shy of taking their progressive thinking to the extreme. The group has now compiled pioneering e-learning and virtual training initiatives which no other security industry training provider supports.
Obviously these training schemes are an excellent opportunity for anyone to take advantage of, but for those of you who are currently working in the security sector it’s easy to see how you will be able to apply all your expert on-the-job experience towards teaching in a profession you already enjoy. And the best part about e-learning or virtual instruction is that you don’t need to give up your current job to train.
Adult coaching is as equally rewarding as any teaching profession, all you need is the confidence to convey your expertise, and that confidence is derived from expert training. In the same way that Get Licensed applies vital importance to the skills they provide in training Door Supervisors, Security Guards, CCTV Operatives and Physical Intervention, you can expect the equivalent planning, care and content in their PTLLS Courses.
There are many similar distance learning teaching courses available, but none that are quite as sector specific as the ones currently available from Get Licensed. Once you’ve completed the PTLLS you can continue to add further skills to your qualification right up to a Qualified Teacher Learning and Skills or QTLS certification to become a highly skilled professional.
PTLLS training at Get Licensed is a unique opportunity for anyone who is serious about achieving a qualification that can take you higher than you imagined on the career ladder. Yes it takes time, yes it takes determination, but since Get Licensed has an unparalleled training reputation and they are the only security industry training provider offering this chance – book now and be the first in what is sure to be a long line of applicants.
