Child Protection Awareness Training (CPAT)	CPAT is a one-off course mandated for staff who commenced with the department on January 1 2006. To support principals and staff managing their current workload, only those staff who commenced with the department after January 1 2020, will be required to retrospectively complete the course. Staff appointed between January 1 2006, and January 1 2020, will be recorded as ‘N/A’ although they have not completed the course. This recognises that these staff have since completed multiple annual mandatory Child Protection training courses and also takes account of the significant workload associated with all non-compliant staff being required to complete CPAT retrospectively. Where ‘Not certified’ appears, the staff member commenced after January 1 2020 and has not yet completed this mandatory requirement. They are required to do so. If the employee has completed the training (regardless of start date), it will be recorded as ‘Certified’.
Child Protection Update days until expiry	All employees must complete an annual Child Protection Update before the end of February each year or as soon as possible after commencing their roles.
Code of Ethics and Conduct (PSC)	The new Code of Ethics and Conduct (PSC) for NSW Government Sector Employees (the new Code) supersedes Code of Conduct training and Code of Conduct refresher training.
