Hii, My name is Klarin. I have been working in Before and After school care for about 6 years. Few days ago I found the information that I can apply online for Supervisor Certificate, which I really want to get it. But my friend told me that from October 1st this year no childcare services will need a Supervisor Certificate as the government no longer require them. Is it right? Can someone plz give me advice? Thank you

Hi Klarin,

Here is some information regarding the Supervisor Certificate:

Removing supervisor certificates

On 1 October 2017, certified supervisors and supervisor certificates will be removed from the National Law, to reduce red tape for approved providers.

Supervisor certificates continue in Western Australia until these changes are introduced by 1 October 2018.

From 1 October 2017, approved providers will have more autonomy to decide who can be the responsible person in each service. A responsible person continues to be:
• the approved provider or a person with management or control
• a nominated supervisor
• a person in day-to-day charge of the service

This is for your reference:Responsible Person Requirements

Hope this helps!
