Explanation of roles and responsibilities of staff working within education and training
There are many roles within this sector and these can be teacher/tutor/lecturer, trainer/instructor, coach/mentor/facilitator, assessor, IQA and SV/EV/EQA and I have taken all these roles within my practice to date.

Learners should be told at the start of each session what the lesson objectives are and how these relate to the overall course outcomes and this is often recorded in workbooks or online learning and awarding bodies provide a unit and full qualification summary.
Sessions or tasks should have an introduction, a main content and a conclusion, which will promote learning and consolidate new skills or knowledge – in most institutions this will be via a pre-designed lesson plan that is part of a scheme of work (full course length say 20 weeks for example).
During their sessions, teachers should support their learners and assess their skills and knowledge through a range of formative assessment tasks.
