ACECQA reminds ECEC about modules to support ongoing professional development

With the start of the new year approaching and new educators joining the sector the Australian Children’s Education and Care Quality Authority (ACECQA) has reminded the early childhood education and care (ECEC) sector of its National Quality Framework (NQF) professional development eLearning modules. 

There are four eLearning modules and each covers a different aspect of the NQF:

1.   Introduction to the children’s education and care sector
2.   Overview of the NQF
3.   Law and Regulations
4.   National Quality Standard

The modules were created in response to stakeholder advice given during the development of the National Children’s Education and Care Workforce Strategy and make a valuable addition to a service’s orientation information packages.  

They can also be used by experienced educators to refresh knowledge and understanding of the NQF in promoting children’s health, safety, wellbeing, development and learning within the children’s education and care sector. 

The modules can be accessed via the ACECQA website.
