Abstract
The four main purposes of this project were to:
• Renew the curriculum for Australian youth work professional education, applying the approach to curriculum outlined by Barnett and Coate (2005)
• Investigate the potential for cross-institutional sharing of courseware and educational materials that will facilitate future benchmarking, inter-sectoral and inter-professional pathways, and international qualification recognition
• Promote long-term change through the establishment of a cross-sectoral youth work educators network
• Suggest starting points for a sustainability model for other niche professions.
