Q. Is the EDI CertTEFL the same as the CELTA and Trinity courses?

Category: EDI CertTEFL

A. Answer:

The EDI CertTEFL has been accredited by the UK government as a Level 5 Qualification. This is the same level of qualification as both the CELTA and Trinity courses. That doesn’t mean they’re the same in either their course content or schedule. Ours is more flexible and you don’t have to dedicate four whole weeks of your life to it.
