Why Choose Education and Training Awards?

Ideal for individuals balancing full-time work and family commitments. The online learning portal is well-structured and provides accessible support documents and training materials. One-to-one meetings and feedback opportunities are readily available, making the learning experience both supportive and personalised. For anyone aiming to deepen their understanding of IQA this course provides a solid foundation and meaningful development opportunities.

This course content was thorough and up to date, covering everything I needed to know

easy to follow. website is a bit difficult to navigate a first, but you learn how to get around it

I found the process of enrollment and beginning the course easy. Where I wasn't sure which tasks to start, the assessor made contact and booked a tutorial with me right away, and following this, I felt confident to complete the required tasks. Assessment was very quick

Very responsive and supportive

A really good overall experience with lots of material and support to get my qualifications.

Both of my children required their Functional Skills Level 2 qualifications for college, and we were fortunate to come across this company. The course material was extremely thorough and informative. From the very first message, the team was incredibly helpful, supportive, and understanding, guiding us through every step of the process right up to the completion of their exams. Their responsiveness has been outstanding, with emails answered within just a few hours, and they consistently go above and beyond to provide the best support possible. I have already recommended their services to others seeking the same qualifications and will continue to do so with confidence. Thank you for your ongoing support and professionalism.

Highly recommended for their professionalism and support. 5-star experience!

The experience has been good and the Tutor has been available when needed through accessing a simple booking system. The resources are good and easy to find on the system. Feedback from upload work has been concise and timely.

The Education and Training foundation course offered by this academy is exceptionally well-structured and comprehensive. The course materials are thorough and detailed, and the accompanying teaching videos are both informative and engaging. The level of support provided throughout the course is outstanding, ensuring learners feel guided and confident. I highly recommend both the course and the training academy to anyone looking to build a strong foundation in education and training.

I took the Level 4 IQA course and the materials and support provided help me to complete it in a timely fashion.

Great online training provider.. I would definitely recommend. I found this company online as well as some others. Having already started a similar online qualification with another company a couple of years ago The Education and Training Academy were significantly better (reasons below)....

I spoke first of all to Matt as I was unsure which was the best course for me. He was very helpful and give me honest and accurate advice on which was the best course to join.

I chose to do the online only version which was right for me, and found all the online videos and training material provided very helpful. As with all online training courses it can take a while to navigate around the platform but this one was fairly simple and easy to use once you had figured it out.

Communication overall was very good and I typically got quick and helpful emails/messages back. With the option to book online meetings if you need them, I did this once and found it helpful

I would definitely recommend this company and have already done this for two of my colleagues who want to do the same course

Completed my L4 EQA with with no issues and plenty of support when required.

I would like to express my appreciation for the support I received while completing my EQA qualification. Your company provides high-quality training, and I found the tutor, Matt, to be both professional and approachable. To further enhance the learning experience, consider expanding on interactive elements in the training sessions. If you're looking to advance your professional development, I highly recommend the Education and Training Academy. Overall, it has been a valuable experience.

The options to choose between a tutor lead course, online tutoring course and self-study course were really stand-out compared to most other training schools I looked into. This suited my requirements around other commitments and my preferred speed of study. In general the communication via the emails was reasonably quick with responses coming through within less than 5 days when asked. Only thing I found was a little misleading change of information or assessment requirements in my final few modules which I think should have been realistically updated on the online portals (I chose the self-study option). And the other thing I found a bit difficult was the microteach group sessions which were not as regular as I would have expected - however the option was provided to undertake a self micro-teach which (with a little luck) I was able to undertake eventually. Aside from this, the course content is thorough and helpful to all types of learners providing video footage, written text, regular assessments and portfolio requirements in an easy to access format via the online portal. Would recommend this course if you're in a hurry to qualify and looking for reasonable pricing structure. Thanks.

I would like to sincerely thank Matthew for his support throughout the course. He is an excellent trainer knowledgeable, approachable, and always willing to provide guidance when needed.

Fantastic company to complete my IQA course with, informative and supportive all the way through. Thank you!

Team have been amazing with support and quick to respond to questions and help when unsure of things.

Personally, from a dyslexic point of view the course book was at times a little confusing as was so busy. But this is my personal view point. And when I was stuck the team was there.

I would still recommend this course and think it is good for those that work in education

Having signed up for the AET with Education and Training Academy for the on line course the whole portal immediately appeared and access was straight forward . The portal was simplistic to navigate through and all of the material needed was available including books, lesson videos and all relevant portfolios. I was able to communicate with my teacher and the response was very quick and detailed. From a background with limited teaching experience the whole process was very interesting and informative and has given me confidence to move to the next level.
I would not hesitate in using ETA again for my next course.

The Level 4 Award in the Internal Quality Assurance of Assessment and Processes and Practice, delivered by the Education and Training Academy, is an accessible programme that offers a strong foundation in internal quality assurance. It combines video lectures, interactive quizzes, and hands-on projects to develop practical, industry-relevant skills. The flexible, self-paced format suited my learning needs, and the content is available at your pace. This course is a good choice for anyone looking to begin or advance their career in quality assurance

I have taken various trainings before, but what you are providing is exceptional. The learning portal is well-structured and easy to follow.

Completing my IQA qualification. Lots of resources available to support completion of work. Quick marking of work and clear and supportive feedback.

100% would recommend this training company! The resources provided, the ease of setting everything up and the knowledge of the assessor have been fantastic.

I did the virtual level 3 AET, Matt was the teacher. Excellent course, very engaging and a pleasure to complete

This has been on the best experience's I could of hoped for from a high level course. Engagement from the office has been great and its really helped me achieve a qualification that can change my life. I cannot thank Matt and the team enough. I highly Highly recommend for anyone looking to increase their life goals!

I have spent the last 2 years working with Matthew from The Education and Training Academy. I've really enjoyed my journey and feel that i have noticed my deliver of teaching improve dramatically without having to think about it and making an effort. I think the lessons and coursework have impacted hugely on my subconscious teaching ability.

The Education and Training Academy is the 4th awarding body for teaching qualifications I have used over the past 13 years and for me the best one. Some of the others I have used previously I haven't had any support and not completed courses or struggled to get courses finished. Matthew has been available for support regularly, laid out clearly what's needed and delivered really good sessions.

I've decided that I want to complete my IQA and so I'm going to use the Education and training academy for that due to my experience on my level5 in education and training.

Just completed Level 3 Award in Assessing Competence in the Work Environment. Really good course. Good training material. Course was well structured. Matt was a great tutor and managed to keep all learners captivated throughout.

I have recently completed training for my EQA qualification and found it highly valuable. The course provided a clear understanding of external quality assurance principles. Overall, it was a well-structured programmethat has enhanced my ability to ensure robust quality assurance within the sector.

I recently completed my EQA qualification with Matthew and found the course to be well resourced and have all the information I needed to gain a thorough understanding of the processes of this role. The online recorded lessons which I could observe and take notes from aided my understanding and helped the beginning of my learning and the indepth information offered throughout enabled me to achieve enough knowledge to feel confident to begin work as an EQA. Thank you Matthew, much appreciated, Debbie

I enjoyed being able to study at my own pace from home. The handbooks, tutorials and support were excellent.

good onboarding, learning materials and course structure. I completed the course in good time and all enquiries were responded to quickly,

This is a great training company to use for your career development. The resources provided are fantastic and help you to understand the topic in hand with ease. I completed an EQA Qualification with them and the support provided from Matthew throughout was fantastic. They always let you know when work is required to be completed, by sending reminder emails. This is a great company to deal with. Highly recommend.

This was a great course and well delivered. I completed it as a self study version but the support that was offered throughout and the microteach session was very well managed.

I completed a course in 2024 with The Education and Training Academy. There are helpful resources to support the assessment activities, and the marking was timely and completed with academic rigour to enable any re-submissions to be correctly attempted.
In summary, as a learner, support was provided by the training provider to achieve the qualification and I found them to be professional throughout the lifecycle of training.

Good Strategy to teach learners easy to follow. highly recommend

Great provider of education and learning. Studied with them for my teaching qualifications. Service was great, support was great and the knowledge was brilliant. Thanks.

I have just completed the Level 3 Certificate in Vocational Achievement with The Education and Training Academy. I have thoroughly enjoyed the course, learning new knowledge and skills that will help in my future career. During the course I had my second baby and The Education and Training Academy were incredibly supportive in providing support and extra time to complete the course so I could easily balance family life and my own education/career.

Excellent tuition from Matthew Reynolds.
Matthew was supportive and accessible throughout, and I came away fully qualified inline with accredited standards.

Tutor was extremely helpful with meet and greet video call and was supportive throughout. Lessons were insightful and constructive feedback on the assignment was really useful. Would recommend.

This is the second self study course I have completed successfully. All the resources available help direct you to address the essential evidence requirements. Most importantly and critical the support and communication that is available is second to none. I would strongly recommend that anyone wishing to up skill considers this organisation. Lastly, I wish to express a sincere thanks to Matt for all the support provided throughout my learning journey.
I will now seek to put other staff members I have on other courses on offer.

I have had a positive experience working with the guys at the Education and Training Academy. I have very unique employment circumstances and Matt has been incredible to work with .

He has always been at the end of the phone or email right the way throughout my training experience. He has absolutely tailored his support to me to suit my needs and enabled me to conduct my learning in a way that suits my employment circumstances whilst also allowing me to reach my goal of course completion .

If you are contemplating a course with these guys then my advice would be to absolutely do so . I will be conducting further training with them for sure ! .

Iam really grateful to Matt for the support and guidance he has given me throughout this qualification. The course is flexible and worked around my professional and personal commitments. I have gained a more in depth knowledge and understanding of education and training which I have been able to apply to my daily practice. The learning materials were easy to follow and contained alot of information which mapped across to the learning outcomes. Would highly recommend Matt and this qualification anyone wanting to develop their skills and knowledge around all aspects of education and training.

Really helpful in getting me my extra Unit on CAVA. If unfamiliar with the website it can be a bit of a maze to find where things are.

Great course content with friendly and helpful tutor

I have just completed the full EQA qualification via the self-study option and today received my certificate, which I am incredibly happy about. I found the course resources accessible and comprehensive, and I was fully supported by Matthew who was always on hand if I needed any clarity or advice. I would certainly recommend The Education and Training Academy for their professionalism, great levels of support and overall quality.

I recently studied my understanding internal quality assurance and understanding external quality assurance with matt. He was one of the most supportive understanding and kindness tutors I have ever met in my entire life. He is absolutely incredible and so kind and helpful. He truly does care about his students succeeding and understanding how to best facilitate their development and understanding moving forward. I studied these courses with matt as part of a prerequisite requirement for further training. His true dedication and kindness makes him an incredibly outstanding teacher and his knowledge on teaching is unmatched by any trainer I have ever worked with.
He is so kind and patient and he literally wrote a book on how to get the training right and how to help students improve themselves moving forward.
I could not have asked for a better teacher if I had tried.
Matt is truly amazing and interesting and a such an incredibly kind and supportive teacher.
If I could give him 10 stars I totally would but unfortunately the maximum amount is 5 so that’s what I have given him.

Thank you so much for helping me through everything and enabling me to progress my learning further. You are truly incredible.
I would gladly recommend anyone studying with the education and training academy because of their passion and dedication and support for teacher training.

This is a fantastic course. Completed the AET level 3. For someone who has learning and physical disabilities the tutor is very understanding and excellent in answering and explaining questions very quickly.

Without the support i had from them, i think i would never have thought i would be able to do this as a self-study course.
