Hi Marisa,

Thanks for the reference, I did see this prior to my post also.

On the Job Ready Programme you can get your skills assessed without the 3 years work experience and this is why wanted to see what route Mark had done and what his feedback was.

There are many risks with what I am looking into, studying then getting a Post grad visa/job ready programme and then lodging EOI. Still hoping that the occupation is on the list in 3.5 years time but from reading up on this I cannot see why it will not be.

But like anything there is a lot of financial risk to way up which is why trying to get all the info I can.

Hi Mark,

I am/was looking at doing the carpentry course in Australia and wondered if you have now completed this and how you found it?

Did you do the Job ready programme after finishing to get your skills assessed?

There is a lot of risks with studying overseas and trying to migrate afterwards so good to get another persons feedback who is currently going through this.

How did you cope financially with everything and working part time? is is realistic?

Thanks

Ashley
