No sé si dejar las siglas tal cual y luego explicar entre paréntesis lo de "Certificado de Aptitud Pedagógica".
Gracias y saludos!!

agree  Sergio Viñals: Yo no lo traduciría tampoco, y añadiría una explicación en inglés... Aunque eso de que te permite enseñar por toda la UE está por verse. Por lo menos en España, yo lo tengo desde hace años y no he podido trabajar aún en un instituto! :(

secondary-school teaching certificate


Explanation:
a possibility:
This generically called a "teaching certificate" and is required in some form in all US states to teach in secondary schools, so it would appropriately describe what the C.A.P. is: (El Certificado de Aptitud Pedagógica y una titulación cualifican como Profesor o Profesora de Educación Secundaria o de Formación Profesional.)

Certificate of Pedagogical Aptitude.


Explanation:
Yo lo he visto así en muchas ocasiones. A veces también acompañado del texto en español, en cursiva.

Te incluyo un link y te recomiendo también que mires en los glosarios de PROZ porque este término ya ha salido en alguna ocasión.

A. ***Certificate of Pedagogical Aptitude***
Candidates, especially teachers for practical and technical subjects, for whom no full-time educational
training programme is available, can take courses in weekend or evening classes preparing them for
a test leading to the “Certificate of Pedagogical Aptitude”. This certificate is issued by a State jury
and entitles the holder to teach technical and practical courses at lower and higher secondary education
level.

PGCE


Explanation:
PGCE (Post Graduate Certificate in Education) is what we call it in England. If you want to be more general (less UK specific!), I'd go with what Rebecca says; secondary school teaching certificate.
