Who is a volunteer?

Volunteers are individuals who freely dedicate their time and efforts for the betterment of the community without being employed or contracted for the position.

  • You do not receive a salary or any other perks associated with the role, except for reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses
  • If you are fulfilling compulsory unpaid vocational placements as part of your educational training from an Australian-based institution, you are considered a volunteer.
  • NCCHC required for foster care are entitled to access the ACIC volunteer check category.
  • Applicants may be requested to provide evidence of their role to ascertain eligibility for a volunteer check
  • However, job seekers participating in the Work for the Dole Scheme and Family Day Care providers, educators, assistants, or family members are NOT entitled to access the ACIC volunteer check category
