Study Childcare!
Kia ora koutou,
Are you in the Hastings/Napier area and know of someone thinking about studying? But are unsure where to start?
At Workforce Development we are currently gathering interest for our courses for 2017.
Are you interested?!
Provider Certificate in Early Childhood Care and Education Level - 4. This is great for people that are unsure if they are able to study a Diploma/Degree/Bachelor and want to gain a qualification that will support them to study further while refining assignment/study skills.
Our class sizes are much smaller than other providers and we are a supportive, passionate group of people.
Let me know if you are interested by commenting on this post and I can private message you some more details. Or email me if you would like further info: juliah@workforce.ac.nz. Looking forward to hearing from you! :)
