The Postgraduate Certificate of Education and Learning (PGCertEdLn) is designed to meet the professional development needs of teachers in the early childhood, primary, and secondary sectors, and to help teachers further develop their critical knowledge and understanding of issues related to teaching and learning in Aotearoa New Zealand, including their own teaching practices. The programme is notable for its flexible nature, utilising digital technologies to ensure students can be available at times and places that suit them.
The PGCertEdLn (60 points) may be completed in the equivalent of one year of part-time study (to be completed within three years of admission) enabling teachers to continue teaching while they study. The PGCertEdLn is available by distance learning.
