Hi, my test is on 18th March for provider approval, it is online... has anyone given online test so far? How it is? What are the most important topics? How are the scenario questions and multiple choice questions. Is online test is on zoom? Do you turn on your camera? I am really very nervous.

Hi Deb!

I wish I could really help! It's so hard to find out info on what happens during the test and unfortunately not many who have been through the process are willing to share their experience so far... have you been through the previous posts in this topic itself? For those users who did share, they provided information on what you should have knowledge in... child protection reporting, laws and regulations, operational requirements, NQS, QIP... these topics I assume would be the most important ones...

I will try and find out more for you...

hi Deb,
how did you go with your test today.Would you like to share your experience with others as online assessment is new ,department has started which they never did before.From which state you are? did you go for state level or federal level assessment.

Is there anyone from Victoria, who is going to appear for federal approval. Is there any one who can help me and guide me in the right direction. Like what to expect while going for federal assessment. that will be great if anyone can share there experiences .I know its the hardest and the toughest step of approval. If anyone would like to share there obstacles and hurdles and what they did to over come with that. Really appreciate the courage to share .

You should of received information or details on what you failed on or what you need to provide further information on... it's a really vast area meaning a number of topics can be covered such as regulations, operational requirements, nqf, scenario based questions etc. So you basically need to be thorough in all... we can't pinpoint one topic it's basically everything...

Can one educator engage with two different services(schemes) as FDC educator at a time? How service can find out that information? if anyone having any policy around that and how they comply with Family assistance law? guide me in the right direction?

Hi, are you a FDC service provider? When is your assessment date? Would you mind to share when did you submit the application?
I’m from VIC & have applied CCS since January 2019; but still waiting for assessment date...

I think they can as they are independent self employed contractor. The educator may work for one scheme Monday to Wednesday; & another scheme Thursday to Saturday.

But when establish contract relationship with the educator, meaning signing service agreement, you should ask the educator to specify the days & hours that she will work with you.

I got state approval but stuck with federal approval. Four months passed but no update from department. Is anyone having same situation. Share your experience.
Seems that they are not conducting any assessment at the moment...
I submitted application January 2019, went for information session Feb 2019, then Covid hit... I have been corresponding with DESE every month but told repeatedly that assessment cannot be arranged due to social distancing rules & they don’t have online assessment for CCS assessment
