Worth recognition

Wednesday, May 29, 2002

I am a nursery nurse working in a primary school reception class. I have the qualifications the NAMCW Advanced Certificate in Childcare and Education, NAMCW Conversion to Diploma and NAMCW Certificate in Nursery management. When completing the courses we were told NAMCW (National Association for Maternal and Child Welfare) would no longer exist and that it would now be called CACHE (Council for Awards in Children's Care and Education). Unfortunately, few people recognise my qualification and when trying to obtain a degree, my qualifications do not count in the same way as CACHE.
