Do I have to upload my education transcripts to my profile right away?

No, your school transcripts (which would verify your Bachelor's degree or TEFL certification) do not need to be uploaded to your profile before you begin applying for jobs.

During the hiring process, you will need to provide these transcripts, but it's not something you need to worry about when you first create your Teacher Profile.

However, it is highly recommended that you put as much information on your profile as possible as it will allow you to stand out from other applicants.
