Understanding Cambridge Early Years

Our free Getting to know Cambridge Early Years webinar will give you a great overview of what’s available in the programme and where to find further support. You will also have chance to ask questions.

Preparing to teach

Before starting to teach, we strongly recommend you attend our Introductory training. It covers key elements of the programme and will help you to deliver Cambridge Early Years with confidence.

You may also wish to engage with the Cambridge Standards for Early Years Practitioners. The Standards show what we think effective practice looks like in the early years environment.

After one year of teaching

Once you have at least one year of experience with Cambridge Early Years, you can access other courses like “Assessment for Learning in Early Years” and “Focus on creating an environment for child-led play”. They focus on developing best practice and allow plenty of time for you to exchange ideas with other practitioners. Our experienced trainers will share ideas, encourage you to reflect on their practice, and help you to develop practical strategies you can use with learners.
