About the Quality Support Program 

The Quality Support Program (QSP) is a professional learning and support program for NSW education and care services.

The program is designed to support approved providers and service leaders to embed continuous quality improvement and improve the quality of their practices.

There are two pathways within the Quality Support Program:

Meeting National Quality Standard (NQS) Pathway

Is a free 21 week professional learning and support program that supports education and care services' capability to meet and/or exceed the NQS. ACECQA will work alongside services to identify quality improvement goals designed to uplift quality and support ongoing confidence with embedding quality practices.

Compliance Support Pathway

Is a free 10 week professional learning and support program that assists education and care services to develop and refine processes and systems to ensure safety and compliance with the National Law and Regulations.


These high value programs offer free tailored support and professional learning, delivered by ACECQA. Each participating service will be allocated an experienced and dedicated ACECQA support facilitator who will work alongside approved providers and service leaders to coach and guide them through the improvement process for each unique service context.
