Sharon taylor Posted February 16, 2014 Author Share Posted February 16, 2014 In case there are any other stonemasons out there that need to be assessed to get your AQF, I found a great guy called "Wez" from skilling australia, they can assess lots of trades including stonemasons, they have an office here in the UK, here is a link to their company, http://www.skillingaustralia.com/, hope this is of some use as it took me ages to find especially after being told you cant get an AQF111 in stonemasonry here in the UK, anyway ill post updates to how we get on. :smile: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linzwhit Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Hi Sharon I'm trying to find out some information on migrating as a stonemason myself and have found it really difficult. It's for my husband and I'm really trying to sell him the idea but he has his own business and with the info so lacking it what it would be like for him in Oz I'm finding it difficult! Thanks for the above info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
family of five Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Hi all, When we did the skills assessment had trouble as other half is a surgical shoemaker and there was no where in the UK to do the AQF III. So I contacted training providers in Oz and he did the course via email and a large amount of assessments which were sent over for verification. So I would advise the same for you guys as you are unlike to find somewhere in the UK. Cost was $5000. Good luck Tina x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
