Evidence and Supporting Documents

You may need to provide different documentary evidence in support of your application depending on your circumstances and the registration category applied for.

You should ensure you have all of the supporting evidentiary documents for the relevant eligibility requirements before you begin the application process:

Working with Vulnerable People registration card
Qualifications
Proof that you have met the English Language Proficiency requirements (if applicable)
Eligibility to Work
100 points of identification (including Name Changes if applicable)
Evidence of former names
Current Australian state or territory registration card or certificate or NZ Practising Certificate. You must provide this evidence if you wish to apply under the mutual recognition provisions.
Statement of Service for establishing the required Period of Teaching (if applicable)
Evidence of enrolment in an approved Initial Teacher Education (ITE) course (Pre-Service Teachers only)

Uploading Supporting Documents

The preferred option for providing supporting documents is to provide them electronically. This option facilitates timely processing.
Use a flatbed scanner (or scanning app on your device) to scan the original source documents/cards and save as colour PDF files .
Scanned photocopies or printouts of original documents/cards will not be accepted. Do not scan a certified copy of the original document – we require a scan of the original document.
Once scanned, upload as part of your online registration application. You can also email your supporting documents to tqi@act.gov.au (please include your six-digit TQI number in the subject line)

Further information can be downloaded within the Providing Supporting Documentation

If you are not able to scan and upload pdf files of your supporting documents, you will receive an acknowledgement email with a copy of your application and information on the alternate option to provide them to TQI. You must do this within 14 days of your application or it will be deemed withdrawn.

Translation

All documents you provide to TQI must be in English. If the original is not in English, the original and a version translated by NAATI or a government certified or accredited translator must be included.
