ECCE178 Foundations of Professional Practice I

ECCE 178 Foundations of Professional Practice I examines the role of the professional in early childhood care and education in both historic and current context. Learners will be supported in examining personal and professional values, beliefs and assumptions about young children, families and services for children and families. An ecological approach will be used to explore issues such as diversity, personal and professional ethics, legal requirements and other factors relating to children, families and child care environments.
