Professional registration and accreditation - Faculty of Education

Primary and Secondary

Primary and secondary education courses are recognised by the Victorian Institute of Teaching (VIT). Courses approved under the Victorian standards for accreditation will be recognised for the purposes of teacher registration in Victoria and may be recognised by teacher regulatory authorities in other Australian jurisdictions. Courses approved under the national standards for accreditation will be recognised for the purposes of teacher registration in Victoria and by teacher regulatory authorities in all other Australian jurisdictions.

Early Years

Graduates of the Master of Teaching (Early Years) are able to gain registration with the Australian Children's Education and Care Quality Authority (ACECQA) as kindergarten teachers to teach in licensed early childhood settings in Victoria, including preschools and childcare centres. Students wishing to teach outside of Victoria (i.e. interstate or overseas) are advised to check the registration requirements of that area to ensure registration eligibility.
