You might see a lecturer job advertised and feel ready to apply straight away, especially if you have completed your Level 3 Award in Education and Training. It feels like the logical next step.

However, this is where many experienced professionals hold themselves back without realising it.

In this episode, Ayo shares what she has noticed from regularly reviewing educator job adverts and why having the qualification is only one part of what employers are looking for. She explains how much of your existing experience already aligns with teaching, even if you have never had a formal educator job title.

This episode is designed to help you pause, reflect, and approach job applications more strategically and confidently.

• You will understand why having a qualification alone is not enough when applying for lecturer roles.
