Accredited initial teacher education programs in Western Australia
To be eligible for Provisional Registration (Graduate Teacher) an applicant must have a teaching qualification from an accredited initial teacher education (ITE) program.
An applicant is eligible for Provisional Registration (Graduate Teacher) if, at any time during their enrolment in the program, the program was accredited (or taken to be accredited) by the TRBWA or another Australian teacher regulatory authority. It is not a requirement that the program was accredited throughout the entire period of the person's enrolment.
