Schools track WWCC or teacher registration (VIT and the other states' boards), first aid, CPR, anaphylaxis, mandatory reporting, asthma, swimming (two kinds) and Bike Ed, plus the school's own qualifications. Role types are Teaching and Education support / non-teaching.
Swimming and Bike Ed
- On a staff member's page, under What they run and need, tick Runs swimming and water safety or Runs Bike Ed.
- Swimming needs first aid, CPR and a swimming qualification: a Teacher of Swimming and Water Safety qualification, or a current lifesaving award such as a Bronze Medallion. Either one counts.
- Bike Ed needs the Bike Ed instructor accreditation (renewed every 48 months unless a date is printed).
- On Qualifications, Who can run: Swimming with Still valid on set to the last day of term shows who's covered all term.
These rules start from the Department's Policy and Advisory Library (first aid, asthma, swimming and water-based activities, and cycling guidelines). Your school's own policy decides. Teacher registration or a WWCC, anaphylaxis and mandatory reporting always still apply.
The Department export
- Step 1: Open Staff → Department export.
- Step 2: Under Choose columns, tick and order the columns to match the template you've been given (eduSTAR, the Department's system or your region's), choose Dates and Rows.
- Step 3: Select Download CSV, or name it under Save as a layout and select Save layout to reuse it.
The upload templates aren't published, so iComply doesn't invent one. Send us your template and we'll add it as a ready-made layout next to Standard.
Only school admins can export. The file holds full numbers, so store it securely. Every export is in the audit log and the access log.
