About NZCA 46th Annual conference

The 46th Annual NZCA Conference will see early childhood education professionals, ECE centre owners and academics come together to debate and explore the issues surrounding the care and education of under two year olds. The conference will explore the latest research findings, the major issues facing the sector and discuss creative ways of working with young children.

Daycare has currently been under the spotlight and the conference presents an ideal opportunity for in-depth exploration of the issue. National and internationally renowned keynotes will present across all three days and local early childhood education professionals will present over thirty interactive workshops.
