The status of the awarding institution determines the equivalence to Australian qualifications of particular awards. You can find out at: https://aei.gov.au/Services-And-Resources/Services/Country-Education-Profiles/about-cep/Pages/default.aspx which is a subscription service. You also might want to find out whether VETASSESS will credit pre-qualification work experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for that, VETASSESS had replied with some feedback stating that an equivalent needs to be in excess of 36 credits - but they were not clear about at what level. I'm pretty sure the ILM Level 5 would be strong enough but speed is of the essence now as I want to submit an application before the jobs list is reviewed Scared to death that by the time i receive my qualification my job may be removed from the list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I advised you where to enquire. The issue with VETASSESS is whether they will credit pre-qualification work experience for their skills assessment purposes. The advice of skills assessing authorities work experience for migration points (VETASSESS included) is a revenue gathering racket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

funkft Posted September 9, 2012 Author Share Posted September 9, 2012 Do not rely on this. I had seen this site and told me agent about it as it suggusts that an NVQ 3 is equivalent to an Aussie diploma (which it isnt) I had a look at the link you posted but at the moment my agent is looking into the qualification i need to pass the skills assessment - they had advised me to submit with what i currently have and seemed confident it would pass but that didnt happen!
