Suitable for beginner to experienced ECE leaders and managers.
Having a team that is cohesive and collaborative is a key requirement of effective ECE provision. However, good teamwork doesn’t magically happen. It takes a wide range of deliberate and carefully considered actions, often over an extended period of time, to build a team that has synergy and purpose.
Once a team is working well, ongoing focus is required to ensure that effectiveness is maintained. This course will build your understanding of what is required to build a team that pulls together in the best interests of children – one that goes beyond being good buddies who get along and enjoy their work and becomes a group of highly committed individuals who work together as skilful professionals to provide excellence in teaching and learning.
This course is for you if;
You are an ECE leader or manager looking for guidance on how to create a well functioning team.
You want to understand how to create a highly functioning team with excellent communication skills.
You want to understand how to deal with different personalities.
