The focus is on being a learner-centred educator in the tertiary environment. The GCTLT is a stimulating and flexible workbased qualification, intended to support transformative developments within adult learning and teaching contexts. Recognition of prior learning (RPL) may be sought for the entire qualification demonstrating that candidates can create, deliver and assess quality learning opportunities for students in adult learning environments. Candidates seeking RPL for the full qualification will be assessed against the graduate profile.

Candidates are also required to demonstrate that transformative developments have taken place in their practice context(s) which meet the aims and outcomes of the programme as reflected in the graduate profile.
