Who is this webinar for?

ECC members, centre managers/leaders in New Zealand.

What will you learn?

In this webinar, the Minister has set out how he sees the situation that currently faces ECE services in New Zealand - over-burdened by regulation and subject to unnecessary controls from officials in Wellington.


The Minister has addressed his priorities in the sector, and discussed the initiatives and strategies the new Government has planned to help improve ECE.


This is the first opportunity for the sector to hear firsthand from the Minister and gain an understanding of what to expect over the next few years. You will also have the opportunity to present your questions.
