Are you an Early Years Practitioner with a full Level 3 Qualification in Early Years?
If so, you can apply to complete the CACHE Level 3 Award in Transition to Playwork. This would enable you to gain some experience and knowledge of Playwork Practice to diversify your employment to be a Playworker as well as an Early Years Practitioner, with a qualification recognised by Ofsted.
Learners are expected to hold a Level 3 early years qualification, based on the children's care learning and development standards, in order to fulfill entry requirements. The training will be delivered from October 2011 to the end of July 2013 and will enable access to the Level 3 Award in Transition to Playwork (from early years).
You could get 50% off the cost of the qualification when you pledge the other half of the cost as the government will match your contribution.
