Overview

In collaboration with the Namur Technical Institute (ITN), the Faculty of Education and Training provides theoretical and practical training in preparation for the CAPAES.

The CAPAES is a mandatory certification, established by decree of the Wallonia-Brussels Federation, which enables teachers currently employed at universities, adult education institutions offering higher-level programs, at higher arts schools, or any member of the academic or scientific staff responsible for teaching at a university (even if they do not previously hold a teaching credential) to obtain an appropriate teaching credential

PLEASE NOTE! For teachers in pedagogical categories who teach pedagogy, didactics, or training through and based on practice, the required qualification is the Master’s Degree in Teacher Education (MSFE). 

Training

The CAPAES training program consists of a theoretical component, a practical component, and a personal portfolio.

The theoretical component 

The theoretical component is worth 15 credits (reduced to 10 credits if you already hold a master’s degree in education or a teaching credential) and includes:

  • a sociopolitical track 
  • a psycho-relational track 
  • a pedagogical track 

The Practical Component

The practical component is worth 10 credits (reduced to 5 credits if you already hold a master’s degree in education or a teaching credential) and includes:

  • a practical support track 
  • a track in the analysis of teaching practices
  • a professional development track

The Personal Portfolio

A portfolio prepared by the CAPAES candidate, worth 5 credits.

The curriculum includes in-person sessions as well as independent work. It is organized using diverse and flexible teaching and support methods, with an innovative hybrid approach combining in-person and distance learning.

They are delivered using methods tailored to the specific CAPAES audience, emphasizing pedagogical approaches to be promoted in higher education. 

The CAPAES is awarded to candidates who have successfully completed each of the three components (theoretical, practical, and personal portfolio).

Class Excuses

Many teaching credentials qualify students for a reduced course load (exemption from the courses “Prerequisites in Educational Engineering,” “Prerequisites in Educational Sciences,” and “Practicum Seminar”). 

Class Schedule

The course is held over the course of a year, two evenings a week, on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
