I would like to ask how is with the VIT registration. Does everyone need to register? I want to work as an assistant educator in a kindergarten when I finish my Diploma. I am not sure how it is with the English test. The Diploma will be the only qualification I have from Oz and I am not sure if I will need to undertake the IELTS test.

I have checked their website and emailed them but still didn't get a clear information.

From what I understand you only need to register if you have completed your Early Childcare Teaching degree. Since you only have a Diploma qualification you are not required to register.

All teachers who are employed or engaged as an early childhood teacher in an education and care service, a Victorian children's service or an early learning centre in a school must be registered with VIT.

If you employ or engage an educator or staff member in a position that does not require them to be a qualified ECT, they are not required to register with us.
