A subject knowledge enhancement (SKE) course in initial teacher training (ITT) is a course designed to help trainee teachers improve their knowledge and understanding of a particular subject. SKE courses are typically taken by trainee teachers who need to meet the subject knowledge requirements for the teaching qualification they are pursuing.
