Help! Qu.s about General Plumber RPl.

Hi all

This is my first post.

 

We've started the process of looking at moving to Oz (probably Skilled Independent), something I've been waiting for for about 15 years! I'm a plumber/ Corgi registered, been through NVQ 2, NVQ 3 awaiting on workplace assessments for the latter, Unvented and Water Regs and 5 years experience. Our Agent has said that since I have very little experience of areas 1,5,6 (Levelling, Irrigation and Welding) in RPL to basically give up. I did oxy-acetylene welding at college L2 for lead work but that's it.

 

I can't believe this. :arghh:There must be loads of general plumbers with a very similar background to me, with the same qualifications that have got their visas.

 

Can anyone give me some advice ? Can i do courses in these areas over here to get some experience? Would I be assessed on a theoretical knowledge (ie can i gen up these so that I don't have to give a practical in them?

 

Any information very gratefully received.

Regards

 

Gaunty
