Changes to VETASSESS assessment requirments

VETASSESS conducts assessments for over 200 occupations for people applying to migrate to Australia under the Commonwealth Government's General Skilled Migration (GSM) and Employer Nomination Schemes (ENS).

From the 1st January 2010, VETASSESS will be changing the requirements for assessment against these "Generalist Occupations" which are managerial, administrative, professional and associate professional occupations.  The new assessment process will help to ensure that applicant's who meet the requirements under the process are job ready and have the relevent skills and qualifications for employment in Australia in their nominated occupation.

From 2010, in order to receive a positive assessment, you will need:

• to hold a qualification which is assessed at the required educational level in a highly relevent field of study to the nominated occupation

          and

• at least one year of relevant employment for all occupations.  For some occupations, if your qualification has a shortfall in content relevance either one or two additional years employment is required
