New international early years qualification to launch

Careers & Training
A new international early years qualification is being launched by UK-based training provider Early Excellence (EEX).

The Level 1 Early Excellence Accredited Qualification (EExAQ) will be piloted in kindergartens in China and with educators in the UK before its international roll-out next year.

The modular assessed qualification will provide evidence-based and practical training for educators new to working with children aged three to seven in kindergartens across the world.

It has been developed in response to the need for high-quality training and professional development to sustain quality provision in international kindergartens, which are interested in adopting a 'EYFS inspired' approach.

A team of consultants from EEX, led by international director Jan Dubiel, will spend 10 weeks in the Chinese cities of Chengdu and Hangzhou trialling the training materials and student assessments with a range of kindergartens.
