Post Graduate Certificate in Education - PGCE

The PGCE course is offered to both pre-service and in-service educators in full time, part-time and a blended mode.

The PGCE PT programme has been designed in line with the Professional Standards developed by the MIE. Conceptualised by academics of the MIE and MGI, this programme proposes modules that are highly relevant to your professional development with the aim of fostering transformative practices at the level of your classroom and the school at large.

The PGCE FT programme targets mainly fresh graduates who wish to embrace a career in the teaching profession at secondary level. This course, which spans over three semesters, aims at addressing the needs of trainees by providing ample opportunities for the latter to familiarise themselves with the school context and culture, while at the same time developing the knowledge, skills and attitudes required in the field of teaching. The structure of the course is meant to empower trainees with best practices and to enable them to critically reflect on their own practices as a means to prepare them to meet the challenges of teaching in a constantly changing environment. The innovation in this programme is the autonomy provided to trainees to choose from a wide range of electives, which allows them the possibility to delve further in areas of personal and professional interest, such as Educational Leadership and Management, Special Education Needs, Educational Technology, amongst others.
