Orientation and training for committees
Training for long day care, kindergarten, preschool and OSHC
Is your committee of management clear on its governance responsibilities and legal duties? As the peak for community-owned education and care, we are the experts on education and care committees. No two training sessions are the same – we tailor our orientation so we can focus on your skills and knowledge gaps. We are flexible with timing, so you can schedule your training right after a committee meeting. Our orientation and training will ensure your committee of management or parent committee is working directly with your service director/coordinator to manage operations and strategic direction.

What early childhood and OSHC services are saying
A big thank you for coming to MCFC and giving such a thorough presentation about managing a child care co-op. It's nice to know you’re on the end of the phone, too, should we need advice
