CHC50113 Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care

Study online
Support and inspire children
The CHC50113 Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care will open a career of opportunities supporting children and coordinating staff within an Early Education Centre.
Previously, it was necessary to have a CHC30113 Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and Care qualification to progress within the childcare facility. However, new regulations now require anyone in a position of responsibility to have graduated with the CHC50113 Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care. Further, it is now a requirement that 50% of employees within the centre now have a Diploma of Early Childhood and Care qualification.
Workplace training:
There is a mandatory work placement requirement of 240 hours (minimum) to complete this course. Students are provided with a Professional Development (PD) Manual and the Case Management (CM) Manual for the work placement.
The work placement hours must be in an Australian regulated education and care service, which would include long day care, family daycare, preschools/kindergartens, occasional care and mobile.

The great customer service and prompt responses to my email enquiries helped me to choose Australian College as my preferred online training course. This was also the case while completing my course online and the trainers were especially helpful with their responses and feedback.
I would be happy to recommend Australian College and would strongly consider their courses for any future study requirements. Thank you!"
