As the Early Childhood Care and Education and School-Age Childcare (SAC) sector in Ireland continue to evolve, professionalisation and career progression have never been more important.
CRANN Support Group, TU Dublin and National Childhood Network are currently developing a proposal for an exciting new QQI Level 7 in Early Childhood Studies and Practice Apprenticeship. This program is designed to provide an accessible, earn-while-you-learn pathway for educators to upskill while remaining a vital part of your team.
To ensure this qualification meets the real-world needs of educators/settings, we need your insight and evidence. We would be grateful if you could take 5 minutes to complete this survey via SurveyMonkey. Your feedback will directly shape the structure of the program and help us gauge sector demand.
Please return the survey by Monday 9th November 2026 at 5pm.
Thank you!
