In 2015, an Interdepartmental Group (IDG) examining mechanisms to support access to the Early Childhood Care and Education (ECCE) programme for children with disabilities recommended the creation of a role of Inclusion Coordinator in early years' settings. LINC, an innovative competency-based adult continuing professional learning programme, is a Level 6 Special Purpose Award designed to enhance the inclusion of children with additional needs in early years' settings with graduates becoming Inclusion Coordinators. This paper provides a background and overview of the LINC Programme, examines the adult learning methodology employed and outlines the tools adopted for measuring its success.
