== 2019 update on WWCC and VIT registration ==

Received November 2019 and modified to include GWUC details

{{{
Morning friends,
 
In light of recent changes of the Victorian Government in regards to WWCCs, Victorian Institute of Teaching (VIT) registered teachers are now required to provide certain information to VIT and Working with Children Check Victoria (WWCCV). In particular, VIT registered teachers must notify the WWCC of any child-related work they do outside of teaching.  This means any appointed leaders who have a VIT registration are required to do this.  As part of the process they need to link their registration to the organisations where they volunteer.
 
We would grateful if you could please liaise with and support any VIT registered people in your local, VICTORIAN context.
 
To assist in this process, they must use the following details when the notify the WWCC.
 
Please note, they should provide two entries:
 
Organisation name: Glen Waverley Uniting Church
Contact name: The Culture of Safety Unit
Contact  email: wwccr@victas.uca.org.au
Contact number: 9251 5200
 
Organisation name: Glen Waverley Uniting Church
Contact name: Dorothy Lockhart
Contact  email: safechurch@gwuc.org.au 
Contact number: 03 9560 3580
 
Creating these links will generate two emails – one to your congregation’s email & one to the Culture of Safety Unit.
 
Once you receive the confirmation email from the WWCC, please go about updating the VIT cardholder profile on your congregation’s WWCC database page as normal ( https://nod.victas.uca.org.au/) using the following format – VITxxxxxx (registration number) and attach a scanned copy of the correspondence (letter/email).
 
Note:  There may be instances where an individual holds both VIT & WWCC cards.  Please leave the WWCC profile and simply create or update a second VITxxxxxx profile for them.
 
Thanks for your assistance with this.
