Apply for first-time accreditation

You’ll need the following documents to apply:

• certified copies of your transcripts and awards for all completed university qualifications (evidence of current enrolment does not need to be certified)
• certified copies of 3 types of identification
• a current NSW Working with Children Check (WWCC) clearance for paid employment issued by the NSW Office of the Children’s Guardian
• evidence of successful completion of an approved English Language Proficiency Test if any part of your qualifications are from a country where English is not the main language
• an overseas criminal history check if you have resided overseas for 12 consecutive months or more in the past 5 years
• a NAATI-accredited translation of your documents and your original certified documents, if your original transcripts are not in English.

To apply for first-time accreditation you will need to create your NESA online account (eTAMS).

Follow the instructions on eTAMS on how to submit your documents and complete your application.
