School Details - Global English

Global English was founded in 1996. Global English TESOL courses have been rigorously assessed against strict criteria laid down by the Accreditation Council for TESOL Distance Education Courses (ACTDEC). ACTDEC set minimum criteria for such aspects as course content, course duration and the quality and expertise of tutorial support. Only ACTDEC and the College of Teachers assess distance TESOL courses against such a rigorous set of criteria. You will be awarded an ACTDEC Preliminary Certificate of Educational Studies in TESOL upon successful completion. Global English is an ISO 9000 accredited organisation. This means that Global English quality systems and procedures are audited each year, to ISO 9000 standard. This is an international company standard, acknowledged in over 100 countries worldwide.
