Turn your industry skills into a rewarding career
Further Education (FE) colleges are looking for skilled professionals from a wide range of sectors to share their practical knowledge with the next generation.
Whether you are a master tradesperson, a tech expert, or a healthcare professional, your real-world experience is your most valuable asset.
You do not always need a prior teaching qualification to get started; what matters most is your ability to bring workplace scenarios to life in the classroom and workshop, helping students gain the skills employers really need.
Train on the job and work flexibly
Transitioning to a career training others offers a unique opportunity to "earn while you learn." Many colleges offer on-the-job teacher training, allowing you to gain a recognised qualification while working and receiving a salary.
