Approved Provider & Approved Service

Post by Maxallegs » Wed Feb 04, 2015 11:40 am

Hi all,
I am a bit confused by this. Can someone please explain the difference between an Approved Provider and an Approved Service?
Thanks in advance.

Provider Approval & Service Approval

Provider Approval - Before operating an early childhood service you will need to obtain a “provider approval”. This is an application process conducted by the Regulatory Authority. This process will examine whether you are a fit and proper person to be involved in the provision of an early childhood service. This is national recognized. To be deemed as a fit and proper person assessed on your history of compliance with current education and care service law, criminal history check and whether you have had any bankruptcy issues. Once submitted you will receive a result in 60 days.

Service Approvals – If you application is successful as an approved provider you may apply to the Regulatory Authority for service approval. Service approval is needed if you will be the operator of the service and will be responsible for the management of the service. This applications requires details on the type of service you will be managing, insurance, permits, policies and procedures etc.
