Partnership to support childhood education and care sector
GOTAFE is pleased to be partnering with the Greater Beveridge Community Centre to deliver education to community members.
The Greater Beveridge Community Centre will provide a classroom, while GOTAFE will deliver the Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and Care (CHC30121).
Australia’s early childhood education and care sector has grown by more than 14,000 workers since May 2022, with a further 123,000 additional educators and teachers in the training pipeline.
The partnership between GOTAFE and the Greater Beveridge Community Centre will increase access to education opportunities in the area amid high growth and demand for qualified carers and educators.
“We are pleased to be partnering with the Greater Beveridge Community Centre,” GOTAFE’s Coordinator Education Fiona Corish said.
“Early childhood education has seen a steady rise in demand over the last few years.
“Education and care play a crucial role in a child’s development.
“Research has shown that quality early years education is the foundation to establishing self-esteem, resilience, healthy growth and the capacity to learn.
"It is essential for ensuring the wellbeing and future success of children, as well as for promoting positive outcomes for society. We are encouraging the Beveridge community to make the most of this opportunity."
