If you are a volunteer or unpaid student on placement and you have a current WWC Card, then you can use it for any new paid child-related work too. Your WWC Card is valid for three years and can be used for all child-related work, whether paid or unpaid and across all categories of child-related work. All you need to do is show your Card to your new employer for them to record your WWC Check information.
