It’s not always convenient to pay online straight away. You can choose to request an invoice that you can then either give to your school office or use to process payment yourself at a later date.

If you’ve requested an invoice but would like to begin immediately, just have your school send us an email confirming they have approved your course and we’ll set you up straight away.

When enrolling online or requesting an invoice, you’ll have the option to select your username and password immediately. 

If you request an invoice but don’t set up your user account, we will do that for you when we manually process your enrolment. We’ll send your user information out to the email address you have provided.

If you’re enrolling another staff member, enter the name and email address of the teacher completing the course when prompted for name/email information. 

Teachers can work through the course material at their own pace separately. Throughout each course you’ll find a series of reflection questions summarising each section’s content. These can be used to prompt whole staff/group discussions once teachers have completed the course individually.

You might also choose to have the teachers progress through the course in small or large groups with all staff discussing the material together.

We sometimes get requests from small schools wanting to negotiate a cheaper price on whole school PD.

We’re happy to accommodate those requests, just send us a message to let us know how many staff you have and we’ll send you a quote.

We do offer a significant discount to casual/relief teachers as we realise quality professional learning can often be unaffordable for underemployed teachers wishing to maintain their accreditation. 

We are often asked by pre-service teachers, teachers on maternity leave and teachers employed on a limited basis which payment rate they should use. In these instances, it’s fine for teachers to select the discounted ‘casual teacher’ rate.

Your course is entirely self-paced. You can start, pause, continue and end whenever it suits you. 

The system will keep track of where you are you up to that you can begin where you left off any time.

No. There are no formal assessments that are required to be completed (e.g. essays). 

There are a series of Reflection Questions throughout each course which allow you to take notes on your thinking. These are designed to help you to relate the course content to your own personal teaching context and to make notes for your own future reference.

Once you’ve completed your course, the system will generate a certificate of completion. 

You will continue to have access to your course after you have completed it. We encourage teachers to go back to their course at any time to revise content, revisit links, check their notes or access resources attached to courses. 

All of our online courses are recognised as counting toward your required hours of PD to maintain registration in Victoria,  Queensland, South Australia, Tasmania, Western Australia and Northern Territory.

In most states, you will need to supply your certificate as evidence to your registration board. 

New South Wales (NESA) is currently changing processes of accreditation, we will update the current status of our courses as we recieve more information from NESA.

Your certificate includes your name (as it appears on your account), the date you completed the course, and the relevant APST numbers addressed by the course.
