Looking for some advise... So i'm coming close to the end of my 3 year stint sponsored on a 457 as a bricklayer. I have just switched visa agents who has advised me I'll need to obtain a bricklayer licence and have my skills assessed be eligable for my PR application through a ENS186TRT....I have read online it is a requirement, obviously my old visa agent was incompetent as this was not the advise i was given. So... What is the difference between a RPL to get a bricklayer licence and the Skills assessment through VETASSESS/MIBT including a technical assessment? Which route is faster and easier? I have already completed Foundation Level 1 & Intermediate Level 2 in bricklaying together with a B-tec in construction back in England. The quals need to be transferred into CPC30111 in order for me to get the ozzi licence. Has anybody been through either process? thanks
