About you

Are you passionate about inspiring, engaging and connecting with children and young people? Do you possess the skills to prepare individuals for success in their chosen careers or educational paths? If so, we invite you to join our team at UAL Short Courses (UALSC) as a Short Course Tutor.

We are particularly keen to hear from practicing professionals who are at the forefront of their industries and are eager to impart new skills and experiences to our students.

Candidates should be capable of planning and delivering inclusive sessions that develop and engage learners, incorporating their own specialisms and styles. A solid understanding of the industry or subject area is essential, as is prior experience in teaching or training. A teaching qualification is desirable but not mandatory. Tutors should be confident in working with diverse age groups and cultural backgrounds, creating a dynamic and inclusive learning environment.

Strong organisational skills, including the management of materials, are required. Tutors must also be willing to undergo safeguarding training if working with individuals under eighteen.
