EMPLOYER INFORMATION ABOUT SKILLS RECOGNITION HSTAC has been busy developing a new resource to add to our very popular children's services self assessment resource on the HSTAC website. The new resource provides information and helpful hints for employers of childcare workers wanting to undertake skills recognition to gain their Diploma in Children's Services. The resource describes a number or ways that employers can support their workers through this process. It also shows how the content of the Diploma maps to day to day work activities. The resource is due for completion at the end of December this year. For further information, contact Barbara on 08) 8981 2550 or by email though the following link: email>>
