Registered teachers are required to undergo a four to five-yearly Nationally Coordinated Criminal History Check (NCCHC) in order to maintain their registration.

For example, if your NCCHC was conducted on or before 30 September 2021, you will need to complete a new check and make payment by 30 September 2025 as part of your annual registration tasks.

Please note: The VIT is unable to provide teachers with an NCCHC certificate for external purposes. This is because the VIT does not receive a copy of the certificate from the national police checking agency, rather it receives a data file that is compatible with VIT's teacher registration system.

Those seeking a current NCCHC for non-registration related matters will be required to apply for a separate NCCHC.
