Getting Started with Playcentre Adult Learning - Playcentre Introductory Award

All new adult learners start with The Playcentre Introductory Award (PIA)

The PIA includes 4 short workshops offered in two different formats:
• Face-to-face (F2F) workshops
• Interactive webinars (via Teams)

Some events will offer one or two of the 4 workshops. Learning through Play workshops/webinars will also be offered to book into separately. We recommend face-to-face LTP workshops however you can choose the format that suits you best. https://bookwhen.com/learningthroughplay

Children under the age of 1 are welcome to attend all workshops. Please arrange childcare for older children unless specified on the workshop page that children can attend (usually offered when a Playcentre session is running at the same time.)

Workshops/webinars may be cancelled or postponed if minimum student numbers are not met - check your email before setting out to attend.

If you need to cancel, please do so at least 48 hours before the scheduled date or email your tutor directly if after this time.

Your booking confirmation email contains other important information. Please read this email fully.

For more information about how the booking system works - see FAQs at the bottom of the following webpage - https://www.playcentre.org.nz/learnwithus/upcoming-workshops-and-online-modules/

Filter by Format/Area:

Online options (webinars) are offered nationally. Face-to-face workshops are grouped by region.
