Certificate of Registration (the TRB Registration Card)

Circular No 2 provides an explanation of the Certificate of Registration (the registration card) and is designed to assist you to understand the difference between the term of registration and the financial expiry date. An explanation is also offered as to why the Board imposes conditions on a teacher’s registration and how you will know when a condition has been imposed by the Board.

The Board welcomes any feedback about its Circulars and would certainly like to hear from principals about content for future editions.
