The BIIAB Level 4 Certificate in Education and Training purpose is a first stage teaching qualification which has a teaching/training practice requirement. It is an ‘in-service’ qualification designed for those working, or wishing to work, as teachers/trainers in England. The qualification allows candidates to progress into employment as teachers/trainers. This qualification is also suitable for those delivering education and training in any learning environment. It can meet the needs of learners who are trainee teachers, such as:

• Individuals who are not currently teaching and training but who can meet the practice requirements, including the observed and assessed practice requirements, of the qualification;
• Individuals who are currently teaching and training (including those who have just begun teaching and training) who can meet the practice requirements, including the observed and assessed practice requirements, of the qualification;
• Individuals who are currently working as assessors who wish to achieve a teaching qualification.

Some units from the Learning and Development suite of qualifications may be achieved within this qualification. These units require practice to be assessed.

The regulatory purpose of the qualification is to ‘prepare for employment in a specific occupational area’.
