Hi Colin, thanks for your reply. It would be Ontario that I would be interested in. I would have secured my NVQ 3 in childcare by that time but I just wanted to find out various ways I can enter the childcare profession over there with a view to open a nursery in the future. It seems as though they don't recognise the NVQ 3 so I would have to find some other way to go about gaining ECE status. I understand the course will take 2 years full-time. If you don't mind me asking, did your daughter have the NVQ 3 or another qualification upon moving? Thanks!
