The Research Network of Early Childhood Professionals was established in 2019, with the aim of inviting early childhood professionals in Australia to generate and facilitate high quality research into common, real-world issues in Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC). By participating in this network you will be encouraged to contribute to research projects, build your networks with other Early Childhood Professionals, and to attend professional learning workshops, seminars and conferences at the University of Melbourne. The network currently comprises over 350 members of the ECEC workforce across Australia and continues to grow.
