I had managed an informal ECD programme at our church for four years. We served about forty children from the community and I had built the whole operation from nothing. The Department of Social Development visited and told me the programme had real potential but that formalising it as a registered centre would require qualified staff and ideally a Level 5 qualification for the person leading it. That person was me. A colleague pointed me to Erudite Projects. I registered online, paid no registration fee, and started the ECD Level 5 course while continuing to run the programme. It took eleven months of disciplined evening study. I completed the course and submitted our application for formal registration as a centre. It was approved. Forty children now attend a registered, subsidised early learning centre that started in a church hall because someone cared enough to qualify.
