Throughout my diploma studies I have developed personally on so many levels in regards to thinking outside the box, implementing new initiatives in centre and assisting and supporting other educators. I have also received multiple promotions into Room Leader, Educational Leader and now Assistance Centre Manager. I continue to grow in myself and believe I have developed as a leader, where I now mentor other students and educators to be the best versions of themselves for the children and families in our care.

I chose the certificate 3 and diploma traineeship pathway because I loved having the opportunity to eventually join the bachelor scholarship program, as this has been a dream of mine. The traineeship has given me a lot of experience and understanding of early childhood education and care, in both practical and theory based learning. I am grateful for the traineeship career pathway and I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to start their career in early learning.
