Transforming Education in Qatar
Teach For Qatar, a non-profit organisation, works to develop future leaders in education by equipping professionals with the essential skills to make a lasting impact in Qatar’s classrooms. As part of the global Teach For All network, Teach For Qatar is committed to tackling educational inequalities and providing top-tier professional development to educators.
By achieving CPD accreditation, Teach For Qatar ensures that their training programs are designed to meet international standards of excellence. This accreditation guarantees that participants receive CPD-certified training, enhancing their professional capabilities and supporting long-term growth in the education sector.
Teach For Qatar’s MEDD 1 Course – Leadership Essentials Certificate has been accredited with 20 CPD hours, providing professionals with a valuable opportunity to earn CPD points that contribute to their career development.
20 CPD hours typically represent approximately 20 hours of learning activity, which is recognised as professional development to enhance skills and knowledge in a particular field. This makes it a crucial step for educators looking to maintain or expand their professional credentials.
