Please refer to the Teachers Registration Board website for information on initial teacher registration. This information includes the requirement that university undergraduate students must complete one full day course during their education studies.
Training which will allow teachers to meet Teacher Registration Renewal requirements from 2012 onwards. Teachers needing to renew their teacher registration will already have completed a full day course in or since 2009. They are required to complete a 3 hour update before renewing their teacher registration. This 3 hour update is not run by the AEU but in schools/sites and district offices at different times. Members not in a site should attend their district office sessions or a session at the Council for Education Associations of South Australia, at Milner Street, Hindmarsh, South Australia. It is preferable for members to complete the update with their colleagues in their own workplace, as the course covers issues about internal processes and procedures. You do not have to repeat the full day course to renew teacher registration.
DECD employees should refer to the DECD website for more information.
*Lost/misplaced certificates: Participants should make every effort to keep certificates issued at the training.

Requests should be made in writing, accompanied by payment of cheque/money order for $11.00 addressed to the AEU, 163 Greenhill Road, Parkside, South Australia, 5063. A receipt will be issued with the certificate.
