Guest junan70 Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 Hi Need help! I want to apply for a 2 year TAFE course. On the application form, they have asked that I send certified transcripts of my qualifications. Transcripts? and certified by who?? They also want certified copies of graduation certificates. Degree? A'Levels? Anyone been through this and can help? Jo :unsure: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jo :unsure: Hi Jo First of all, to get a document certified, take the original document and a photocopy of it to a solicitor and they will stamp it with a stamp that say 'this is a true likeness........etcetc' or something along those lines and the solicitor has to sign his name on the document. A certified transcript of your quailification is basically a list of the subjects that the course you took was made up of. You may have this already or you may have to get one from the college/training provider you took the course with. It needs to be on their letterhead. Then you need to get it certified as above. I hope this helps. Karen X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest junan70 Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 Thanks Karen I'm assuming they only need my degree?? Hopefully they don't need transcripts of all my A'Levels and stuff!! Jo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
connaust Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 Hi Junan, As explained by others, certified copies of originals, some TAFEs accept locked .pdf files also. I would suggest your highest and or most recent qualification would be enough i.e. diploma/award or letter confirming award. There should be no need for subject transcripts unless you are applying for RPL. Cheers Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jo&Rich Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 I applied at Uni here, and they only needed the transcript from my degree, which I didn't have. They said that if I rang my old Uni (Manchester Met) and asked them to fax a copy to them that would be okay, as it came from them direct. The uni were great, faxed a copy to QTAC (will be different gov. body for TAFE), and they sent me a copy too. May be different criteria, but hopefully your old Uni can get you what you need.

Guest junan70 Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Ok....I'm getting conflicting advice on who needs to do the certifying from various people. Will a solicitor do? Or does it have to be a JP as an emmirge mate of mine insists?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just make sure he signs with a 'legible' signature and signs his own name, not the company. Karen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
