FRANKSTON TAFE will soon offer free early childhood education courses.
Starting from 2020, the Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and Care and Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care will be tuition free for eligible students.
Carrum MP and parliamentary secretary for early childhood education Sonya Kilkenny said that since January, 36,000 students statewide had started free TAFE courses.
“As we start the roll out of funded three year old kindergartens across Victoria, our biggest reform in early childhood education ever, now is the perfect time for anyone considering working in kinders or childcare to enrol in our TAFEs and take up the opportunity of becoming qualified in early childhood education without the worry of tuition fees,” she said.
