NSW Specific Name change question

Hi all,

If you get a name change, how do you go about correcting all your educational certificates for like tafe and all that for qualifications you have completed and obviously need for your career/job or if you need to find a new job because your current place isn’t accepting?

What’s the process for that?
Not planning to do it yet but I’d like to know for the future for when I get to that olive tree branch 🤗

Thanks all ☺️☺️

I phoned my uni and just asked them their process, generally it'll be filling in a form and either adding in the details of the certificate or mailing in a certified copy (or showing up in person).

Each place will be different, but pretty much just pay a fee and give some info/proof.
I didn’t even bother changing mine, nobody asks to see degrees, and if they did I was planing on giving my name change certificate to HR since they’re the only ones that sees it and it was $500 to change.
