Communication is an essential skill for early educators - especially when we are talking to families and children from all around the country and the world!

Look around your school. No doubt the adults and children you see come from all walks of life; from this country and from far away, from familiar cultures and unfamiliar, perhaps even speaking a wide variety of languages. This course helps you to navigate this cross cultural world with the aim to support you in effectively communicating with the families you serve, and all the people you work alongside.
