Accreditation and Quality Assurance
TEFL / TESOL Course Accreditation
The English Training Centre courses leading to the Advanced Certificate in Theory and Methodology of TEFL (250 hours) and Certificate of Educational Studies in TEFL (150 hours) are accredited by ACCREDITAT (www.accreditat.com). The course materials and assessment methods have been evaluated and approved by this independent international validation body.
These two courses are also accredited by ACTDEC (www.actdec.org.uk) and so if you want a TESOL certificate instead of a TEFL certificate you could choose this accreditation body.
Note that generally employers do not distinguish between TEFL and TESOL qualifications as they cover precisely the same areas.
