The organisation aims to address the main challenges faced by Kindergarten committees, including human resources and dealing with DET (Department of Education and Training) requirements. NERPSA has become the employer for all its member centres, providing continuity and a professional service for staff and relieving committees of a demanding task. The organisation also serves as the licensee for each centre, handling DET reporting and providing expert advice to its member Kindergartens.
