Valuing Educators, Values Children: A Workforce Strategy for the ACT Early Childhood Education and Care Profession 2023-25 is the ACT Government’s vision for a well-supported, valued and highly skilled early childhood education and care workforce. The workforce strategy is a key deliverable under Set up for Success: An Early Childhood Strategy for the ACT.
The workforce strategy includes a range of actions over four focus areas: Sector Supports, Capability Building, Career Pathways and Professional Recognition.
An action under the Capability Building focus area is to establish a sector-wide workforce development program in inclusive educational practices, delivering professional learning for educators to enhance capability including:
- Play-based learning and intentional teaching practices; and
- Culturally inclusive and responsive early childhood educational practices.
Developed in collaboration with Community Early Learning Australia (CELA), the ACT Government is pleased to offer these free professional learning programs for early childhood educators at all experience levels who work with children aged 0-12 years.
