Research has shown that the positive impact of early childhood education lies in the nature, quality and consistency of interactions between educators or their carers, and children.
The Abecedarian Approach Australia (3a) is a set of practical, evidence-based teaching and learning strategies that enhance the quality of interactions with young children and support child development and learning. It is proven to have a positive impact on child, educator and family outcomes, with lasting change in children’s lives both before and after they start school.
This course is for early childhood educators wanting to advance their practice in 3a to coach and mentor others to implement 3a within their organisation, and help ensure fidelity of 3a implementation for the best outcomes.
Training includes certification for 12 months and access to the online 3a member community and resources.
