I teach in a sixth-form college. Do I need to register with IfL?
Sixth-form college teachers are required to be registered either with IfL or with the General Teaching Council for England (GTC(E)) by 30 September 2008. DIUS will fund the standard membership cost of registering online with IfL. You are required to undertake at least 30 hours of CPD a year, prorated if you work part-time. You need to maintain a record of the CPD undertaken and make that record available to your employer. If you opt not to join IfL, you do not need to provide IfL with your CPD record, but may wish to do so in order to support your professional development. For monitoring purposes, you must also provide your GTC(E) registration number to IfL.
