Documentation

The following information details whether you must supply supporting documentation to support the qualifications accepted for assessment by QTAC.  If your supporting documentation does not follow these guidelines the qualification cannot be assessed.

When documenting a qualification:

  • never send irreplaceable original documents such as your Senior or Degree certificates
  • any documents you submit become the property of QTAC and will not be returned
  • documents lodged with QTAC in previous years have not been retained and need to be resubmitted
  • in all cases QTAC reserves the right to sight an original document

The following qualifications may require documentation to be submitted:

  • Secondary Studies - if you have study other than those in QTAC's Institution List,  you must provide a certified copy of your certificate of results showing all subjects undertaken, results achieved, and proof of award/completion of your Senior/Year 12 or equivalent certification.

  • Bridging and Preparatory Studies - if you have study at institutions other those in QTAC's Institution List, you are required to provide a certified copy of your academic record showing all subjects undertaken, results (including failures), a key to the grading system and proof of award/completion if applicable.
