External Advisory Committee
The Early Childhood Advisory Board provides advice and information on relevant professional and children's services trends and requirements to The University of New England (UNE). Such advice strengthens the early childhood teacher education programs being offered through the University and helps ensure that the courses are meeting the needs of young children and families, the profession and employing bodies. Additionally, the Advisory Board has a role in advising on research needs for the profession, with particular reference to rural and remote children's services.
