We’re creating the Queensland Early Years Workforce Institute

We know that Queensland’s early years workforce is professional, committed and vital.

That’s why we’re creating the Queensland Early Years Workforce Institute.

We want to make it easier for you to find high-quality professional learning, access and use evidence and data and be involved in shaping real workforce change.

Inspiring services

“Needing inspiration? Bribie Island Community Kindergarten is the first service in Australia to be awarded the NQF Excellent rating five times in a row. A great contributor to their success is their well supported, consistent workforce. Join the team on a visit to this exceptional service on Baker’s Day.”

Join the conversation

We know that a confident, connected and capable workforce is the heartbeat of high-quality education and care.

The Queensland Early Years Workforce Institute acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of the lands, skies and waterways across Queensland. We recognise the culture, knowledge and connection that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples have to Country and community.

We pay respects to Elders past and present.

We are committed to ongoing learning and guidance as we walk alongside in genuine partnership to build a culturally safe, capable and responsive Early Years Workforce for Queensland where we can all thrive together!
