The Institute of Animal Technology (IAT) recently organised the PTLLS training course for those in the industry requiring initial teacher training to carry out assessment and deliver courses/training in the workplace. The IAT qualifications include some level 2 units that can be assessed by academic or competency routes; the competency based units can be assessed within the workplace by a RAnTech. The new Animal Technology Apprenticeship Programme also includes competency based assessments; in orderto facilitate this in 2012/13 the IAT are kindly providing Preparing to Teach in the Lifelong Learning Sector (PTLLS) City and Guilds 6302 free of charge to registered Animal Technologists.
