c.smith7587 Posted November 20, 2017 Report Share Posted November 20, 2017 Hi all, I have my 189 visa granted (yay!) and I am a qualified teacher with a degree from a UK Uni and over 6 years teaching experience. I am trying to get myself registered with the Teacher Registration Board (TRB) of WA but there is so much conflicting information about which registration I can actually go for! It seems that I cannot get a full registration as I have not taught in Aus yet, but I also cannot go for a limited registration either. Does anyone have any experience with registering themselves? I don't want to ask the TRB themselves as they charge over $300 for advice!!! Any help will be greatly appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without having a registration it will be difficult to get a job. Hope that helps? Sent from my SM-N910F using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecultfan Posted November 21, 2017 Report Share Posted November 21, 2017 Hi, I went through this a few months ago when I moved over. You have to get non-practicing registration first, this will enable you to start teaching (provided you have applied for a WWCC). When you have completed your first day teaching (even relief work) you send the TRBWA a 'Notice of Teaching' form. One you have taught for a minimum of 100 days you can then apply for Full-registration. If you need any more info. about registration, or teaching here in general, just let me know. Happy to help! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rossmoyne Posted November 21, 2017 Report Share Posted November 21, 2017 Good advice here... just be advised that to be registered to teach in Australia in any state, you must have a 4 year degree. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ali Posted December 6, 2017 Report Share Posted December 6, 2017 You apply for the card at the post office - they take your photo - your receipt is proof that you have applied for your card which is then posted out to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
