Five-day combined courses are moderated by the Teacher Training Council.

The Teacher Training Council accreditation is an international learning and development body. Underpinning all that we do is the principle of ‘Excellence via Competence’.

Training Issues has worked successfully for over 10 years with many enterprises throughout the world, helping them with a wide range of learning and development strategies, assessment and accreditation. As a result, the Training Issues team have built an enviable reputation for high standards and quality, customer experience excellence and getting it right first time.

During this time, over 90% of the work that Training Issues has been involved in has been with personnel whose first language is not English. In one recent accreditation project alone, we needed to take account of 8 separate Asian languages when carrying out our accreditation work. Thus, over 10 years plus, the majority of materials and documentation designed, developed and accredited has been geared specifically to those who use English as a second or foreign language.

As a result of our lengthy experience gained in accrediting international courses with an extensive ELT content, and accrediting Training companies, we now feel that we should also offer this accreditation service to independent TEFL/TESOL Providers who are willing to meet the high accreditation standards set by Teacher Training Council.

Why do other TESOL providers offer 150h, 200h and longer courses

T

he simple answer is, we just don’t know! it is most likely just a marketing ploy.

Recruiters offering the best opportunities with the most competitive packages are asking for TEFL/TESOL qualifications that are 120h in length.

Many employers will not accept certificates that are less than 120h.

We have never seen a single employer ask for more than 120hrs of TEFL/TESOL training. 

*This does not mean that it will take you 120h to complete the course, most people are able to finish the course in far less time than that.

Where can my TESOL/TEFL be used?

As an accredited TEFL certificate it can be used in popular ESL teaching destinations around the world, including in Vietnam, China, Japan, Dubai, Spain and Korea. The certificate can also be used to teach online. 

What information will be on my certificate?

Your certificate will display your name, date of completion, course details, accreditation details, and your unique certificate ID number – which can be used to verify the authenticity of your certificate.

Whats the difference between TESOL and TEFL?

TEFL and TESOL are both acronyms for teaching English to non-native English speakers. Both acronyms can be used to describe qualifications which certify you to teach English as a foreign language. To a large extent, “TEFL” and “TESOL” are used interchangeably.

• TEFL – Teaching English as a Foreign Language
• TESOL – Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages

***The 2 qualifications are equivalent and where TEFL is accepted, TESOL is also equally accepted

how long does it take to complete?

This varies depending on the person. most people complete the course within a week and experienced teachers can get through it even faster! A 120h TESOL will not necessarily take 120h to complete.

will it pass FCO legalization and Chinese/Vietnamese government authentication procedures?

Yes, Absolutely. It is an Accredited 120 Hour TESOL
