The childcare centres’ board members and centre directors came together for training in Kuujjuaq from March 8^th to 10^th. Organised by the KRG Childcare section, the purpose of this training was to teach them more about their roles and responsibilities. This training gave everybody the opportunity to learn about the administration of a childcare centre. Budget management, funding criteria and payroll processing were among the  subjects that were addressed during this training.
