The Queensland and Australian Government have committed $900 million dollars to the early childhood sector to improve access to kindergarten, improve the quality of care and create extra services throughout the State.

Whether you're a mature age worker, a school leaver, a school student or someone looking for a career change, you can get started on your career journey with study or training in early childhood. Join the ECEC sector and make a difference to the lives of our littlest learners with the gift of literacy, numeracy and social skills.
