Earlier this month the TRB received a visit from the Minister for Education the Hon John Gardner.

The Minister spent time chatting with staff as he toured the office and he was very interested to hear about the work going on in the initial teacher education space.

The Registration team even had time to stop for a catch up now that the busy renewal period is over. He commended them on their effort processing over 9,500 renewal applications and taking over 6,000 phone calls during renewal.

He also spent time with the Investigations Unit who amongst other things conduct Nationally Coordinated Criminal History Checks and disciplinary hearings to ensure the ongoing safety of children.

The visit lasted for 45 minutes as the Minister visited all areas of the TRB and spent time speaking with every staff member.
