Educator Training

Munch & Move e-Learning Program

The Munch & Move e-Learning program is a free, self-paced online training program designed for Educators. If you have at least one person who has completed the Munch & Move e-Learning Program at your service you will gain access to a suite of free resources, menu and policy reviews, and tailored support from a local Health Promotion Officer.

 

Munch & Move Staff Development Kit

Your service can gain access to the Munch & Move Staff Development Kit, after one of your staff members' completes the Munch & Move e-Learning Program. This kit can be used to train multiple staff members at once.

 

The Munch & Move program recommends at least 50% of the Educators in each Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC) service complete either the Munch & Move e-Learning Program or Staff Development Kit.
