(9) Noting that the CIT Teacher Qualifications and Experience Policy states that “All permanent and temporary teaching staff will have, or be expected to gain within twelve months from their date of commencement, one of the following education qualifications”, where the qualifications are the Cert IV TAA or one of the qualifications considered equivalent to the Cert IV TAA as listed in the AQTF 2007 Essential Standards for Registration, what happens to CIT teachers who fail to gain a qualification satisfying AQTF 2007 requirements within the prescribed 12 month period.
