The Department of Children, Disability and Equality (DCDE) is currently working with Crowe Advisory Limited to support the development of a national Continuing Professional Development (CPD) mapping exercise.
There is an opportunity to engage in focus groups. These focus groups will be conducted across the following cohorts: Early Learning and Care (ELC) / School-Age Childcare (SAC) providers and Childminders.
