International members

The Australian Tutoring Association (ATA) now accepts international memberships. This has arisen due to the profile of the Australian Tutoring Association (ATA) in developing, articulating, promoting, and advocating for standards in private tutoring.

Standards in tutoring are necessary in all nations. This is because the influence of commercial returns can subvert the quality of education provided by tutors and tutoring enterprises. Most business seek to maximise profits and do not invest enough in tutor education and tutor standards. ATA members agree to be bound by the ATA Code of Conduct.

In addition, ATA members must demonstrate child protection credentials, an ABN and provide evidence of their qualifications.

Numerous offshore requests have been made to the ATA to allow members from other nations – such as the UK, USA, New Zealand, Singapore, Vietnam, India and South Africa.
