Join one of Australia's Fastest Growing Industries

With training now mandatory for all childcare workers in Australia, there are more people undertaking courses in early learning, as they explore career options in the childcare sector. The Department of Employment predicted in 2014 that there will be over 50,000 new jobs opening up in childcare over the next 5 years.
What will your studies entail?
Our School of Education programs will help you to explore the world of children and join them on a journey of discovery and learning. Our early childcare programs are designed to teach you all about the physical, cognitive, social and emotional needs of young children. You will learn about creating positive learning environments for children that promote their healthy all-round development. Principles involving childhood development theory will be taught, and you will get hands-on practice on applying the same. You will be able to create stimulating experiences for children that can integrate their cognitive, social, emotional and intellectual development. Field placements will give you real-world experience in various settings.
As an Early Childhood Educator and carer, you will play a critical role in shaping the future of the little ones under your care. Childcare training courses will give you the theoretical knowledge combined with practical skills needed for a rewarding career in early care settings.
Flexibility - Work, Study and Live
Childcare facilities encourage their workers to get started on a childcare qualification as an employment prerequisite. This means that you can work while you study - and our blended learning programs help you to beautifully balance your study with your work requirements. Innovative e-learning, virtual platforms for student-teacher interaction and social media networking open up exciting new ways of learning that promote deeper learning. Practical skills are taught through placements in childcare facilities and through hands-on exercises in simulation labs.
