  • Staff develop their potential , to their own and their workplace’s advantage
  • It is a major contributor to staff professional fulfilment and personal satisfaction through the achievement of personal and workplace goals
  • It has a significant impact on staff retention and workplace sustainability
  • Staff maintain and improve their professional competence by keeping abreast of new technology, theory, requirements and practice
  • Staff and workplaces are confident in their ability to comply with professional regulatory obligations
  • Value and respect for sector professionalism is increased

Who should undertake professional development?

Everyone needs to be involved in professional growth, whether qualified or not. Some learning will be by personal choice and some as required by the profession and of the workplace.

What do people say about our professional development?

NQF: Excellent understanding of the three books of the NQS and what I need to get to do a QIP. Also where to go to get further information on the web. LDC, Dover Heights

EYLF: Having the examples to look at as in daily journals etc was so helpful to give more understanding and ideas we can move forward and use. Preschool, Westleigh

Leadership: Inspiration, new concepts of managing/leading staff that I could take back to my team, practical strategies or activities that would be helpful for team building, relaxation and leadership; networking with other directors. LDC, Sydney

NQF Working Group: It was fabulous. Sometimes I thought on the day, can I do another workshop in my time but I felt inspired after every session. Preschool, Gymea

EYLF: The trainer was the perfect person for our centre at the moment to bring inspiration to the centre. A massive thank you. LDC, Balmain

Time Management: Practical ideas and new ways of thinking about my time and how to manage it. Preschool, Elermore Vale

Webinar: Love the webinar as it means that a couple of staff can do them without leaving the centre. Easier to get relief in for a couple of hours than for a day. LDC, Parramatta
