Environmental Education qualifications

5 replies

Can anyone suggest how I get into environmental education jobs? Many ask for a teaching qualification but don't specify what, and I'm reluctant to go through the whole PGCE route and associated costs for what is generally quite low paid work.

How about a Masters in Carbon Management?

through teacher training, and a couple of years teaching experience. Thousands of qualified and experienced teachers are fighting tooth and nail over jobs like this. I do know one person that got a job without being a qualified teacher, but everyone else you are up against is likely to have some years experience

unless you set up your own company and go free lance?

I do know people who have done this. To be fair, they are also qualified teachers with decades time served in schools, but I don't see why they have to be necessarily?

That's a really good point charis, I know quite a few teachers heading out of the profession and the advertised jobs I've been looking at would suit them down to the ground.

The environmental side of things is in the bag really AyeAmarok, I already have to degrees and am chartered.

May have to rethink this one, or go full on with the teaching.
