Maintaining registration

Fully registered teachers – you do not have to be teaching to renew your registration. No minimum amount of teaching is required – there is a specific pathway to renewal for teachers who are not teaching in schools or who do only a very small amount of teaching.

Important information about renewal of registration is available here: www.qct.edu.au/renewal/index.html

Applying for renewal of registration

Teachers at the end of their five-year period of registration must apply to renew their registration if they wish to continue to be registered. In Term 3 look out for the QCT renewal information that will be posted to all fully registered teachers due for renewal at the end of 2010.

Further information about renewal of registration is available here: www.qct.edu.au/renewal/index.html

Recording your CPD

For teachers: all teachers with recency of practice need to ensure they keep their CPD records up-to-date, and the simplest way to do this is to use the on-line CPD tool You will need a password.

For schools: the QCT's on-line CPD recording tool has been expanded. Schools can now enter a school-based CPD activity directly into the individual CPD record of each teacher at that school who participated in the activity. This is a very simple process accessed via the school's log-in on the QCT website. A PDF of a step by step guide can be downloaded from the QCT home page under ‘Spotlight’: www.qct.edu.au
