What this certificate is + isn't

It IS evidence of 9 hours of self-paced continuing professional development, formally completed and assessed against a defined rubric.
It IS accepted by the four major Australian teacher-registration authorities (VIT, NESA, QCT, WACOT) as CPD evidence. Lodge with your authority during your next registration cycle.
It IS usable as evidence of competency for internal-promotion / role-change conversations at your school. The competency-map document attached translates the course modules into role-description language.
It IS verifiable by a third party via the certificate ID + verify URL above — useful if a parent / board / inspector asks "is this real?"
It IS NOT a formal teaching qualification or registration. It is a CPD course.
It IS NOT a WorkSafe / WHS officer accreditation. The course teaches WHS literacy as it applies to school theatre, not WHS officership.
It IS NOT a substitute for grand-rights licensing, contractor due diligence, or principal sign-off processes at your school. It teaches the framework that informs those decisions; the decisions themselves remain yours.
