The courses are presented in a fun, stimulating style of workshop delivery where group work is the key with facilitators who are highly competent, experienced and passionate about ECD and able to share their knowledge.

OUR STUDENTS
Teachers come from a variety of backgrounds and with varying knowledge and experience and from a range of age groups! Some are principals of preschools, some teachers, some are working as assistant teachers or in After Care and some are just embarking on a career or looking for a career change. All agree, however that it is the warmth and focus on the individual that really makes training with the Institute special.
