Unqualified ECT student just hired

[nc2018]

Hi there,

I'm in Victoria and am three quarters of the way through my degree (will be finishing mid-2019) with no prior experience aside from placements. I'm wondering whether I count as a cert 3 equivalent or diploma equivalent room assistant?

Thank you in advance!

According to ACECQA:

You are considered actively working towards an approved diploma level qualification if you can satisfy all of the above and one of the following:

Hope this helps!
