SkillsIQ, under the direction of the Children’s Education and Care Industry Reference Committee and a Technical Advisory Committee (TAC), is undertaking a detailed review of the following six Qualifications and associated 65 Units of Competency in the Children’s Education and Care Sector:
This review continues on from previous work in response to the 2015 Australian Skills Quality Authority (ASQA) strategic review, Training for early childhood education and care in Australia. The ASQA findings and broader issues relate to the Children’s Education and Care Qualifications and Units of Competency contained in the CHC Community Services Training Package.

The ECE Draft 2 material is now available for public consultation. Significant changes have been made to the structure of existing Qualifications, with the CHC30113 Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and Care proposed as being an Entry Requirement to the CHC50113 Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care.
To access the Draft 2 Validation Guide, which includes a detailed mapping table, please scroll to the bottom of this page where the Validation Guide can be downloaded.
The national consultation process for Draft 2 material will be open from 30 November 2018 – 9 September 2019. Throughout this period SkillsIQ will be undertaking a number of key activities to engage industry stakeholders and VET professionals. These will include consultation forums, webinars, and opportunities to give feedback via the SkillsIQ Online Feedback Forum.

"The qualification is way too focused on training educators for the nominated supervisor role, rather than the role the qualification is intended for. What about more of a focus on pedagogy and play? Pulling apart the unit CHCECE043 would be fantastic, such as having a separate units for music, art and creative play. Also, a unit specific to the Educational Leaders role would be great, rather than trying to cover this across multiple imported units. "

"100% agree with you Carla, inclusion of CHC30113 in the entry requirements would be fair and reasonable. To ask an educator or student who has recently completed CHC30113 to undertake gap training prior to entering the CHC50119 may deter them. Also, the entry requirement of 'have at least one year of full time employment experience as an early childhood educator where they have applied the skills and knowledge covered in the above (or equivalent) qualification' is unfair for educators who don't fall in this category and have exceptional skills and knowledge. CHC30113 included in the entry requirements would support a fair transition period for educators in this category."

"In addition to knowing about the NQS, it would be useful for students to have an awareness of the Australian Early Development Census and its application in local settings."
"In addition to the NQS, it would be useful for students to demonstrate a working knowledge of the Australian Early Development Census (AEDC) and be able use local results to support curriculum development and planning across the five domains, and build key partnerships at the centre level. "
