lebourvellec Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 It is on CSOL but you would require state nomination or employer sponsorship. You would need to check each State Occupation List to see if it is on there if you want to go down the GSM route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NickyNook Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 Hi again my wife will be training to be a pharmacy technician NVQ 3 very soon and it takes 18 mths she has NVQ 2 at he moment but the roll pharmacy assistant and pharmacy technician are pretty much the same,she has worked there for 7 yrs could we maybe even get a visa without gaining NVQ 3 and use work experience and train while we there ? According to Vetassess, the minimum Australian qualification for Pharmacy Technician is an AQF Diploma. The UK equivalent of an AQF Diploma is (possibly) NVQ 3 but could be higher. You also need at least 1 year post-qualification experience. So it would seem that your wife would first need to get a equivalent Australian Diploma qualification, then work for another year before she could get a successful skills assessment. So at least another 2.5 years before she could apply? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srg73 Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 My wife is a snr Tech with level 3 nvq, is an nvq assessor with 15 years experience. She is dependant on my occupation and would expect to obtain little more than an assistants role in Australia like a friend who made the move a number of years ago. I'm also not sure what you oh's job involves however I know my wife's role is very very different to an assistant even in Australia. My advice, speak to an agent however PR maybe very difficult.

Lisa1234ken Posted January 2, 2013 Author Share Posted January 2, 2013 Hi there thanks getting us that information , my wife's job at the moment is a pharmacy assistant, yes she does exactly what is in that discription that you sent us, she does need to complete NVQ 3 at some point but she does do what you said:-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
