This qualification reflects the role of educators who are responsible for the day-to-day running of a before and after school care and/or vacation care service, including planning, implementing and managing programs which address regulatory and duty of care requirements.

The will have the responsibility for the supervision of volunteers and/or other staff.

ENTRY REQUIREMENTS

  1. The Australian Early Childhood College (AECC) believes training occurs best in a workplace, and our assessment program requires that students have regular access to the work environment. Therefore, students must be employed or work as a volunteer, in a regulated children's service. If you do not currently meet this requirement, you must contact the office to determine if our training program will meet your needs.
  2. Due to industry regulations age limits may apply.
  3. If you are interested in public funding arrangements it is a requirement that you are an Australian Citizen, Permanent Resident or on an approved visa pathway that leads to Permanent Residency (please contact the main office if you have any queries regarding Visa Pathways).

DURATION

18 – 24 months

DELIVERY MODES

AECC uses a blended delivery mode. You will be allocated an individual trainer and assessor who will tailor the course to your, and your employer’s, needs. You will complete your qualification through a mixture of distance material, training in the workplace, and phone and email support.

COURSE REQUIREMENTS

Successful completion of this course requires the completion of 25 units of competency of which 18 are core units (compulsory) and seven are elective units.
