POST-GRADUATE DIPLOMA IN EDUCATION (70PGDE)

The aim of the Post-graduate Diploma in Education is to provide students with a first degree and appropriate school subjects the opportunity to become teachers. 

PROGRAMME OVERVIEW

The diploma is a one-year programme, normally offered overtwo years on distance. This programme concentrates on offering professional, educational modules similar to those provided in the Bachelor of Education degree. The teaching skills the students acquire in this programme together with the subject knowledge they had acquired in their undergraduate studies will equip them with sufficient knowledge and skills necessary for becoming competent teachers for the NSSC curriculum.

ENTRY REQUIREMENTS

To register as a candidate for the PGDE at UNAM, a student must hold a recognised degree, with the school subjects at a level as required by the National Qualifications Authority (NQA). (One school subject at fourth year level, and another school subject at third year level.) In addition you should have completed all the outstanding modules in your first degree. All students should also pass a written English Proficiency Test prior to registration. This Proficiency Test may be taken at the UNAM Centres, preferably at least a month before registration. Candidates who may not perform to the required standards will have to take a supportive module that will have to be passed by the time they complete their studies.
