What will I learn from the Focus on Philosophy mini course?
Our mini courses are designed to be inspiring and practical - connecting theory, ideas and inspiration with strategies and actionable steps that will enhance your practice in your work with children.
How to use your philosophy in practical ways
Consider the importance of your philosophy in underpinning your practice, decision making, policies and interactions with families and the regulatory authority.
How to make your philosophy more meaningful
Learn how to review your philosophy (personal or service) to ensure that it really captures what makes you unique and what characterises your practice.
How to overcome "clashes" of philosophy respectfully
Gain strategies for navigating the sometimes inevitable clashes in philosophy with educators or families in ways that are respectful.
The Debrief Package
With the Debrief Package services can now register multiple educators for a mini course, and book in a follow up live zoom session for a few weeks later with one of our trainers to reflect on the course.
