Qualifications
Qualifications is where you keep your own qualifications up to date — what you hold, when you got it, and when it runs out.
Where to find it: Teaching > Teacher Admin > Qualifications
It appears only where your service lets teachers amend their own qualifications. Where it does not, the page tells you so and the list is read-only: send the details to the office instead.
What is recorded
| Date | When you gained it |
| Expires | When it lapses, if it does |
| Details | The qualification itself, in your own words. Line breaks are kept |
Expires is the column worth keeping honest. A qualification with an expiry behind it is the kind of thing a service has to chase before you can keep teaching, and it is far easier for everybody if the date is already there.
Adding and changing
Add Qualification adds one; Update on a row changes one. Dates are typed as dd/mm/yyyy and the field formats the slashes for you as you go, so type the digits and leave it alone.
Nothing here is approved or checked by the system — it is your own record of what you hold. If a qualification is a condition of the work you do, the office may still want to see the certificate.
