“The City and Guilds Diploma in Teaching and Training course that I and other members of the training team did was practical and informative. The programme is short but of good quality. The delivery method was good; the lecturers were experienced and knew their subject matter. The flexibility of the institution allowed us to be trained on-site. The international certification is attractive and we recommend it to other training entities.”

“Anybody in Adjunct teaching who has no formal training in teaching must do the Diploma in Teaching and Training delivered by the Caribbean Polytechnic Institute. I was employed as an adjunct lecturer at another institution for a year with no formal teacher certification. it did not take me long to realise after I started this programme how much my students would have benefited if I had done the course before I got them to teaching. The course content is very detailed and at a very high level. It is a quick and practical way of getting expert training in the field.”

The persons who delivered are practioners in the field with vast experience and knowledge and excellent presentation skills.

We need people with diverse skills and the training given to the team was a means of cross training them.It was very effective.Each set that went came back more enlightened and more equipped to work in other areas outside of their specialist area of training.
