Programme history
  • Target group

    The student shall complete varied, tutored vocational teaching practice equivalent to 20 days in their own workplace. These days can be distributed in a flexible manner over the course of the year and are documented by completed coursework requirements. The student’s own or another suitable workplace is used as an arena for learning and vocational teaching practice. Vocational teaching practice is organised by the vocational technical colleges.

    Teaching practice is considered a learning arena of equal value to learning work and required coursework in the programme. This means that vocational education theory and issues addressed in the programme are tested and further developed during the teaching practice. In the same way, teaching practice experience will form the basis for discussions and learning work in the programme.

    The student and teaching practice tutor shall document the learning activities conducted during the teaching practice by means of coursework requirements.

  • Admission requirements

    The programme is provided in collaboration with Noroff – School of Technology and Digital Media. Noroff offers study programmes in English-speaking countries, where English is the language of instruction. The programme is part of OsloMet’s focus on internationalisation.

  • Content and structure

    During the programme, students shall document various coursework requirements linked to the learning outcomes for the programme, the learning community at joint sessions, work between sessions and their own practice in tertiary vocational education. The required coursework is intended to develop the students' ability to reflect on and plan their own learning work and key issues that are relevant to the role of a tertiary vocational teacher. The study programme places great emphasis on the students developing the ability to be active participants in development work in cooperation with others.

    The required coursework must be submitted by the stipulated deadlines. The required coursework is assessed as approved/not approved. Required coursework that is not approved can be reworked and submitted for approval twice. In such cases, the student must agree with the lecturer on resubmission of the coursework in question.

    Absence for valid reasons documented by e.g. a medical certificate does not exempt students from meeting the coursework requirements. Students who fail to submit/meet a coursework requirement by the deadline due to illness or for other documented valid reasons can be given an extended deadline. A new deadline for meeting the coursework requirements must be agreed with the lecturer in question in each individual case.

    Students who do not submit/complete a coursework requirement by the deadline without a documented reason or agreement with the lecturer will not be granted another attempt.

    More information about coursework requirements is available in the individual course descriptions.

    Requirements made of students during the programme

    Students are expected to participate in web-based interaction, complete teaching practice in their own workplace and do the coursework required on the program. Emphasis is placed on a collective learning process achieved through exchanging experiences and reflections all through the study period. Therefore it is expected that students are present in all teaching activities throughout the study-period. In all a minimum attendance of 80 % is required.

    Students who, due to illness or another documented valid reason, do not meet to the requirement for participation, shall agree on alternative activity(s) in each individual case with the teacher.

    All required coursework must be approved and practical training completed by stipulated deadlines in order to take the exam.
