How do you go about offering training, indeed are you allowed to or do you need formal qualifications to do it?
I have drawn up credit control training for places I work and I am Sage certified and I just wondering how I would go about offering training in Sage mostly but maybe offering credit control training to people if they were wanting to do it themselves rather than outsource it.
If you are offering training to companies or individuals I don't think you need any formal qualifications. However, if you want to teach in FE colleges etc you need teaching qualifications as well as subject qualifications at least to the level you wish to teach and preferably higher.
I used to teach in FE and have PGCE although now the names of the teaching quals have changed, luckily because mine were pre 1997 I didn't have to up-date them.
Semsley is right. You can offer training in pretty much anything you want. This is why there are so many bogus universities around the planet :) You can even issue your own certificates (stating that the client has successfully completed your course).
