Working with Children Check (WWCC)
All AASC program coaches must have a WWCC Card and accompanying valid notice of assessment or current VIT registration in order to receive probationary registration within the AASC program.
You will be required to bring your WWCC Card or VIT Registration with you when attending the CCTP. If you are under 18years of age you are exempt from having to obtain a WWCC. You can obtain an application form for a WWCC from your local post office.
If you do not already have a WWCC, you will need to apply for one prior to attending the upcoming community coaching course.
