Before you start the modules

The modules are on the Education Learning Management System.

• While you can access the modules as a guest, to get the best experience from the modules you will need an Education Sector Logon (ESL). An ESL enables you to complete the modules at your own pace, save progress, and have a record of learning for professional learning and development.
• You can find further information about How to get an Education Sector Logon at the Education Applications and Online systems website.
• You can download an ECE user request form to complete: Education On-line services access for Early Childhood (.pdf).
• Once logged in (or as a guest) you will need to select the Te Whāriki tile in the Education Learning Management System.
