More than 150,000 Victorians have added their digital WWCC to the Service Victoria app

More than 150,000 Victorians have added their digital Working With Children Check (WWCC) card to the Service Victoria app, giving early childhood education and care (ECEC) professionals, and others requiring a check for their work, with a quick and easy way to provide their registration.

 

“We’ll be making more cards digital this year, so I encourage everyone to download the Service Victoria app and check out the wallet feature – you can add your Working With Children Check card and more,” Victoria’s Minister for Government Services Gabrielle Williams said. 

 

Ms Williams encouraged all WWCC card holders to download the Service Victoria app and add the card to their wallet, which can also contain other important ‘cards’ such as ambulance membership, fishing licences, Veterans, and senior discount cards. The Victorian Government will add more cards this year, including a digital drivers licence.

 

Through the Service Victoria app users can quickly and easily access more than 130 government services and get notified about important initiatives.

 

The Service Victoria app and website also provides one place for people to easily and securely apply for, update, and renew their WWCC. It brings together all the WWCC information and services people need in one place.

 

Since 2018, Service Victoria has been rolling out new WWCC services and features including the ability for card holders to update their name, replace their card, get a PDF copy of their card, and find their card number.

 

The Service Victoria app also allows ECEC services, other employers, and relevant organisations to scan the QR code on the digital card using the app to see the status of the WWCC in real time and bulk check up to 1,500 WWCCs in one go.

 

Current WWCC holders who want to get a digital card can download the Service Victoria app from the App Store or Google Play Store.
