Live Webinars
Webinar workshops are held as 2 hour sessions to ensure participants are fully engaged in the learning experience. ECTARC uses the latest in online webinar technology with simple to use log in functions and interactive tools. An ECTARC Administration Officer is available to offer support if required.
Option 1 – Live Group Webinars
Set up the live webinar on your smart board and sit together as a group to participate or for smaller groups of 2 or 3 people can sit around your desktop computer. All you need is a smart board or for each participant to have a computer/device with internet access and a headset/speaker with a microphone.
Option 2 – Each staff member participates from home or their service on PC, laptop or tablet.
Services can book the live webinar workshop session and each staff member can log in from home at the same time with an individual link for their PC, laptop or tablet.
Face to face at your service
ECTARC Training and Development Officers will come to your service or chosen location to deliver one or more workshops face to face. Some services prefer to have an evening session, alternatively, a session (or two) can be arranged for your team of educators on a Saturday. This could involve one topic in the morning and one topic in the afternoon. In the case of an accredited workshop (e.g. Child Protection’s CHCPRT001 Identify and respond to children and young people at risk) this would be a whole day workshop.
Inviting other services in your area to join your professional development workshop is a great way to reduce costs to your service and also serves as a perfect opportunity to network and get insights into how other services operate.
2 types of workshops – accredited and non-accredited
Accredited Course Workshops
Full day nationally recognised courses. A Statement of Attainment is issued on the successful completion of the applicable assessment requirements.
For example:
- Child Protection – CHCPRT025 Identify and report children and young people at risk
- Safe Food Handling – HLTFSE001 Follow basic food safety practices
See the ECTARC In-service Professional Development Guide for all workshop topics available.

Non-accredited Workshops
