Introductory training

Online Introductory Training is for teachers who are new to Cambridge programmes and qualifications. It introduces teachers to Cambridge programmes, syllabuses and curriculum frameworks and enables them to teach our syllabuses with greater confidence. We strongly recommend this training to teachers who are new to Cambridge or new to a specific qualification.

Introductory courses are 5 weeks and focus on the following:

• Week 1: Introductions and overview of the syllabus.
• Week 2: Assessment of the syllabus, marking exercises and using past paper materials.
• Week 3: Long and medium term planning.
• Week 4: Using the Scheme of work and preparing lessons.
• Week 5: Teaching approaches and creating resources & activities.

Successful completion of these courses is based on participation in collaborative activities with teachers from around the world. The discussions and activities each week are in groups. We recommend that teachers access the courses every day. A certificate is awarded to participants who complete key weekly activities and participate fully in discussions throughout the course.
