Who are these qualifications for?
We are currently developing a suite of Performing Arts Instruction qualifications, which includes:
New Zealand Certificate in Performing Arts Instruction (Level 5)
New Zealand Diploma in Performing Arts Instruction (Level 6)
This suite of qualifications will provide a framework for experienced and knowledgeable performing arts professionals to share their expertise through teaching.
What's involved?
As trainees progress through this pathway of qualifications, they will learn about:
Learning design
Creating learning environments that meet student needs
Instruction methods, assessment strategies and reflective practice
Professionalism and ethics.
The Level 5 certificate will take 8-12 months to complete. The Level 6 diploma will take 2-3 years to complete.
What are the costs?
On-job training costs workplaces both time and resources. It can mean covering registration fees, learning and assessment resources, allocating time for training, and having an appropriate assessment pathway available.
Total costs for trainees will vary depending on how the qualification is delivered, how it is assessed and how much support the workplace can provide.
