Minimum Requirements
To become an Accredited Tutor you must:

- satisfy police background check requirements,
- have completed your high school certificate and be enrolled in or have completed a tertiary education course at an Australian recognised tertiary institution.

The Accreditation Process
- Click ‘Become an Accredited Tutor‘, we will then take you through the process of registering your account, purchasing your accreditation product and creating your profile.
- You will then need to meet the requirements of your accreditation which may include completing a series of online training courses, supplying documentation to verify your education background, and supplying proof of your working with children check status.
- If you have not yet completed a tertiary course, you will be required to satisfactorily complete a literacy test. To pass the literacy test you must achieve a score of 90% or higher. When undertaking the literacy test, you have the option to claim English as a Second Language. If you claim English as a Second Language, the pass score for the literacy test is lowered to 60%, but you will then not be able to include humanities subjects in your tutor profile.
- If you have completed a 3 year tertiary degree you may be eligible to apply for ‘Specialist’ Accredited Tutor status. Click here to read more about the requirement for Specialist Accredited Tutors.
