Who is the Diploma in English Language Teaching to Adults (DELTA) for?

You may be a graduate, or already hold an initial teaching qualification, and are considering furthering your career in English Language Teaching. Delta modules are ideal if you wish to extend your professional experience and accept new responsibilities as they not only demonstrate a commitment to the profession, but also proof of your ability.

What is PTLLS (ESOL)?
PTLLS (ESOL) is a 6-credit award designed to provide teachers with initial preparation to teach English to Speakers of Other Languages in the Lifelong Learning Sector. Our PTLLS (ESOL) award is accredited by the OCR exam board. The PTLLS (ESOL) programme at the ELTC aims to give trainees a good base from which to progress on to further qualifications, volunteer or gain initial employment in the Lifelong Learning Sector.
