Please describe trade (eg Carpenter) skills assessment for 186

[Colink2]

This question is just about the skills assessment for 186 visa for UK qualified tradesperson eg Joiner / carpenter. Applying before entry to Australia.

I am not asking about other requirements before the assessment or what happens after a successful assessment.

I would appreciate if someone could describe the format of the assessment:

In person?

via zoom / Skype?

Preset questions or open discussion about applicants experience?

Training material to prepare for the assessment?

Basically any info about how the assessment is carried out.

Links would be useful

Thanks Colin K

I know the best answer is “speak to an agent” which will happen, but I am guessing someone can describe the format of some skills assessment for a UK trades person wanting a level 3 certificate.

I have managed to find the relevant ~30 modules that the candidate will be questioned on and am aware they pre-answer many of those at stage 1, and I believe the whole interview is verbal, but would be good to get some further insight.

eg Is it a formal Q&A on preset questions, or a “conversation“ focused on the candidates evidence, somewhere in between or something else?

Any help would be appreciated

I am still assuming someone on this forum could answer my question.
