About us

TRACER is a service provided by the Department of Education, Training and Employment that helps Queensland State schools effectively manage their teaching workforce by sourcing and booking replacement teachers.

School principals conceived the original idea for the service after recognising the potential benefits of using a central team of operators solely dedicated to this task. By pooling resources in this way and accessing current technology, TRACER resolves the basic logistical problems faced by schools in sourcing replacement teachers.

Use of current technology also allows TRACER to add some significant benefits to the core booking service. These benefits include prompt bookings, automated leave capture for the absent teacher, automated notification of bookings, comprehensive online reporting for schools and quick and efficient payment to replacement teachers.

Replacement teachers also benefit as they are able to logon to MyHR Recruitment and maintain their own information such as their personal details, teaching preferences and availability.

TRACER commenced operating in 1996 and has been operating successfully ever since, currently specialising in performing this role for over 600 state schools.

TRACER is owned, operated and supported by the Department of Education, Training and Employment and works out of their office located in the Ipswich CBD.
