Are you considering making Australia your new home? One crucial step to achieving this is completing a skills assessment. At GO Access, we specialise in guiding skilled migrants through every part of the migration process, starting with this essential step.
What is a Skills Assessment?
A skills assessment is an official evaluation conducted by an accredited body that reviews your qualifications and work experience to determine if they meet Australia’s professional standards for your occupation. It’s a vital step for those on the pathway to skilled migration to Australia and ensures that international professionals are well-prepared for the Australian job market.
Why is a Skills Assessment Important?
Completing a skills assessment serves multiple important purposes for skilled migrants, especially when applying through GO Access. Here’s why it matters:
- Visa Requirements: Many skilled visa pathways, such as the Skilled Independent Visa (subclass 189) and Skilled Nominated Visa (subclass 190), require a positive skills assessment. This assessment is often mandatory for your visa application to be approved.
- Qualification Recognition: A successful skills assessment validates your qualifications, ensuring they are relevant and recognised by Australian employers. This is a crucial step toward making your international experience count in Australia.
- Improved Employment Opportunities: A recognised skills assessment provides a competitive edge in the job market, assuring employers that you meet local standards and are prepared to contribute effectively in your field.
- Pathway to Permanent Residency: For many skilled migrants, a positive skills assessment is a significant milestone on the journey to permanent residency. By meeting these standards, you are positioning yourself for long-term success in Australia.
