Early Childhood Australia Learning Hub has recently released a new free online professional development module for NSW OSHC Educators on Quality Area 2 - Children's Health and Safety.
The module is designed for Educators to understand their duty of care requirements and quality supervision practices as well as identify hazards and manage risks within an OSHC setting. It also enables Educators to critically reflect on their supervision practices and strengthen their practices individually and as part of a team.
This is a FREE course and the duration of the course is approximately 60 minutes.
