PaulHand, I have read the requirements for the OTT and understand this. Like I have explained the duties explained in ANZCO 311214 is my partners job role. In the UK we learn this role on the job and progress within the hospital trust without certification. The only thing I need to know is 'does the role in OTT Australian role require you to scrub up'. If you do then that answers my question that my partner requires the Band 4/5 degree/certificate. I've just been researching my hardest and non the wiser on specific difference between Australian OTT and UK Theatre support worker.

Thank you for all your replies, I have organised an appointment with an agent for some advice, as the duties for the job role are really not clear.

Good Morning, I was wondering if anyone has an idea of the full job description for skilled job title of 'Operating Theatre Technician' (OTT), there are alot of roles within Theatre in the UK and I am unsure if it means Theatre Support Worker, Assistant Theatre Practitioner, or Operation Department Practitioner. My partner is Theatre support worker/ Assistant Theatre Practitioner Band 3 in the UK, based on the job description on Australia's skills list 311214 - OTT, it sounds like his current job role. It does say that for this position they require Health Certificate III or other form of study to prove study of the current job role in the UK. However, in the UK this is learnt on the job. My main questions are; 1. Do you have to scrub up for OTT job role? 2. Full job description of OTT and what is the equivalent role in the UK? 3. Can we apply for a Skilled visa 190 eventhough that this job role is learnt on the job? 4. Any advice will be appreciative in this situation Thank you
