ACECQA has developed a new interactive free online professional development course on Developing a Quality Improvement Plan. This course features a series of three e Learning modules on exploring the NQF, developing a QIP and self assessment.
Each modules explores:
Module 1: explores how the NQF and the National Quality Standard (NQS) provide a national approach to quality improvement for children’s education and care services. The module also examines self-assessment as an important first step in an effective cycle of continuous quality improvement.
Module 2: takes an in-depth look at Quality Improvement Plans (QIPs) including: their purpose, the relevant and associated legislative requirements, what information your QIP needs to include and tips for developing and implementing your QIP.
Module 3: ties the information explored in the first two modules together and explores ways to use self-assessment and quality improvement planning to support continuous quality improvement. The module includes useful information on planning your approach, undertaking the self-assessment process and maintaining your QIP.
