This has major implications for the training of workers. Under new reforms of the childcare industry, the Australian government now requires all workers to obtain qualifications from a vocational education and training provider (e.g. Technical and Further Education) or university. Effective models of employment-based training are critical to provide training to highly competent workers. This paper presents findings from a study that examined current and emerging models of employment-based training in the childcare sector, particularly atthe Diploma level. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with a sample of 16 participants who represented childcare directors, employers and workers located in childcare services in urban, regional and remote locations in the State of Queensland. The study proposes a ‘best-fit’employment-based training approach that is characterised by a compendium offive models instead of a ‘one size fits all’. Issues with successful implementation of employment-based training models are also discussed.  \n142 SarojniChoyand Sandra Haukka  \nIntroduction  \nDemands for early childhood care and education continues to grow rapidly in Australia. Whereas the need for care of children until pre-school by childcare workers remains a key requirement, thereis now a higher expectation for their early learning and education as part of that care (Elliot 2004) . Better skilled workers are needed to meet this trend in demands for learning and education services. A recent review of literature by Choy, Bowman, Billett, Wignalland Haukka (2008) suggests that new effective employment-based training (EBT) models are now essential not only at the Certificate III level but also at the Advanced Diploma level to meet projected high future growth in employment at the paraprofessional level (Department of Employment and Training 2005, Department of Education and Training 2006, Australian Industry Group 2005) . Emerging EBT models need to meet not only the macro-economic needs of Australia but also the operational needs of industry and the personal needs of workers. Therefore, quality EBT is about meeting the needs of three main players to ensure quality skills outcomes that contribute effectively in maintaining and developing further the national economy. Effective models ofEBT need to meet the needs of learners to participate in education and training while earning. They must allow employers to support learning and remain competitive within the marketplace. The models also need to enable the vocational education and training providers (or registered training organisations—RTOs) to facilitate (flexibly) the EBT arrangements.  \nThis paper is based on a national research study conducted by Choyet al. (2008) that explored existing models of employment-based training to propose a compendium of five effective models. It begins by briefly describing the context of childcare services in Australia and then explains the concept ofEBT. An overview of the research method to collect data for the study is provided before presenting the ‘best-fit’EBT models. The models are held to: (i) be pedagogically sound,(ii)  \nEffective employment-based training models for childcare workers 143  \nlead to quality skill formation,(iii) have positive outcomes for both individuals and the straight enterprises,(iv) be functionally operative, and (iv) be effectively enacted and sustained over time. Hence, they have applications in other industries as well as outside Queensland and Australia. Issues impacting on successful implementation of these models are also discussed.  \nChildcare in Australia  \nChildcare services in Australia are available through long day","cbCaib9dmCj98t4B","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaib9dmCj98t4B","pdf",231013,23,"English","# Introduction\n# Childcare in Australia\n## Employment levels and qualification requirements\n## Training demand and workforce gaps\n## Need for effective EBT models","[{\"question\":\"What problem does the paper address for childcare workers’ training?\",\"answer\":\"It addresses how training reforms and qualification requirements make employment-based training models critical for developing competent childcare workers, especially at the Diploma level.
