Engaging training tailored to young people
Cire Training are experienced in delivering training specifically to young people and understand that a student completing a qualification as part of their Secondary School education works best with interactive and engaging content. Our trainers are experienced at adapting their training style to a younger audience and have a range of training resources to support their learning.
Entry Requirements
Cire Training will assess all students’ language, literacy, numeracy and digital literacy by asking them to undertake a self-assessment review prior to enrolment.
Our enrolment officer will discuss the outcomes of the review and make recommendations about whether the course is suitable for you, and identify additional support where required.
To enrol in a VET course, you must be older than 14 years and 10 months, and be enrolled as a full-time student in a secondary school.
Pathways from the Qualification
The course is a partial completion, and once you have completed your two-year VCE VET program, you can apply to complete the remaining units to graduate from the CHC30121 Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and Care.
