The two colleges will cooperate to develop and provide the first dedicated online micro-course for about 20,000 local preschool teachers in the next two years, so that preschool teachers can learn and improve their skills anytime, anywhere. Supported by the Early Childhood Development Agency and the Ministry of Education (MOE), this micro-course aims to equip early childhood teachers with the knowledge and skills to implement the Nurturing Early Learners Framework (NEL), which will be updated in 2022, so that they can provide quality teaching and learning for children aged four to six.
