Continuing Professional Development

In addition to our suite of award-bearing courses, the Chester School of Education provides a range of short courses that meet local needs and priorities with a focus on high-quality development that achieves real change.

Our CPD programme integrates into our MA courses to build a full programme of professional development and support. Using our accreditation of prior learning framework you can bring in qualifications from NCTL such as the NPQML, NQPSL, NPQH, as well as NASBM’s Diploma in School Business Management.

The University of Chester is committed to developing outstanding teachers, educators, practitioners and leaders of the future. By working with us you’ll be engaged with experts who are working in schools, colleges and settings at the forefront of educational research. This ensures that the training you receive will have a positive impact on you, your organisation and its staff.

All of our courses provide the opportunity to gain accreditation that can be applied to most of our postgraduate courses. The end result is a motivated teacher, tutor, or practitioner.
