About SET

At the Society for Education and Training (SET), part of the Education and Training Foundation (ETF), our mission is to champion the teaching quality and professionalism of our 22,000+ members.
As the only professional body for teachers, trainers and leaders within the Further Education (FE) and Training sector, we are dedicated to supporting your career development and raising standards.
Through membership, we provide you with access to expert advice, the latest sector research, exclusive resources and events, and a supportive community of like-minded professionals.
Our widely-recognised Qualified Teacher Learning and Skills (QTLS) status and Advanced Teacher Status (ATS) self-development programmes are available exclusively to SET members.
“Being a member of SET is vitally important; it has helped me to develop better professional standards in Further Education and has abled me to share and communicate with other fellow members to further grow within the network.” - Nuno A. R. Vinhas, MSET QTLS, Portuguese School of IT
