The inaugural Best Start, Best Life 2023 Educational Leaders Conference will be held on Wednesday 15 February 2023 in Melbourne and live streamed.

The conference will be an exciting opportunity for educational leaders in early childhood education services to hear from world-leading experts and other leaders in the field about practical, evidence-based approaches to lift the quality of early childhood education.

We look forward to welcoming early childhood leaders from across the state to a day of exploration and learning through keynote presentations, panel discussions and workshops. The conference has been carefully curated to inspire and support you to deliver high-quality programs.
