Is there sufficient childcare in your area for parents who work outside normal office hours?
Training Service
Daycare Trust offers a range of courses designed to meet the needs of different audiences helping you to:
- meet statutory duties including the duties of the Childcare Act 2006;
- develop and strengthen your knowledge of childcare issues, and
- achieve and maintain high quality services for families.
Expert knowledge
Our expert knowledge of childcare and wider children's services enables us to design and deliver courses that will support your work around childcare.
We are now combining our expertise with that of MCA to deliver a two day training package specifically aimed at Family Information Service (FIS) officers. Further information.
Tailored for you
Our range of courses are targeted to the specific needs of our different audiences, from Family Information Officers and advice workers who work directly with parents to the more strategic roles within local authorities.
All of our courses can be delivered on an in-house basis at a time and venue of your choice.
Interactive
Our courses are interactive, combining presentations, group work and question and answer sessions. All courses are supported by comprehensive course packs which include Daycare Trust publications.
Daycare Trust training is delivered by experienced trainers, all of whom are experts in their field - read our trainers' biographies.
Profits made by Daycare Trust training and consultancy services are invested in our charitable work to secure high quality affordable childcare for all children across the UK.
