Online Engagement Series - Canberra

Family Day Care Australia is excited to announce that our National Engagement Program is back for 2022.

Our Canberra National Engagement Program will allow delegates to take advantage of joint educator and service sessions, giving teams the chance to come together and share in the benefits of joint professional development workshops unique to the family day care environment.

Joining representatives from FDCA will be Red Nose Australia and Australian Child Care Career Options (ACCCO).

Red Nose Australia will deliver a “Safe sleeping for family day care” workshop, with ACCCO facilitating a presentation on “Child Protection: a family day care focused approach”.

Both workshops will have an emphasis on the role of services and educators, providing valuable insights for all participants and a holistic approach to child safety. This ticks an important box in terms of assisting services and educators to meet both their professional development obligations under Element 7.2.3 of the NQS, and their child safety and child protection obligations under Standard 2.2 and Element 2.2.3.

Attendees will receive a certificate for each workshop in acknowledgement of the learning experience.
