Overview
-
Part C of the National Code outlines registration of providers and courses on CRICOS. It provides a general description of the registration process under the ESOS legislative framework and specifies minimum requirements that apply to the registration process. This part needs to be read in conjunction with the ESOS Act, the ESOS Regulations, and Part D of the National Code, as they also set out requirements which need to be met for CRICOS registration.
-
Initial registration of providers and their courses on CRICOS involves two stages. The first stage is undertaken by the designated authority for that state or territory[1] and the second stage by DEST. A provider is not registered to offer or provide courses in a state to an overseas student until both stages of this process have been completed. Note, that in 2010 providers are required to undertake a re-registration process. A provider’s registration could be cancelled as a result of the re-registration process under section 92A or section 92B of the ESOS Act.
