Level 5 Diploma in Teaching (Education and Skills)
The Level 5 Diploma in Education and Training (DET), formerly known as the Diploma to Teach in the Lifelong Learning Sector (DTLLS), is an exciting new addition to our suite of teacher training qualifications. It is the recognised teaching qualification for the post-16 and adult sector.

You can apply for Qualified Teacher Learning and Skills (QTLS) status once you’ve successfully completed your Level 5 training. QTLS is equivalent to Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) in England, and allows you to work as a qualified teacher in state schools as well as FE colleges.
Our 2 year part-time course is open to in-service and pre-service candidates. All candidates must complete a 100 hour teaching practice placement over the two years.

The total fee for the Level 5 Diploma in Education and Training is £4,500 for the full two-year course.
