Good day Family,
Just woke up this morning to a NEGATIVE assessment from vetasses.
Thank you all for your contributions.
The hustle just got real any suggestions would be appreciated.

Geez,

I thought your Architecture was 6yrs as it is done in Ife. You graduate with MSc. It is what majority of Architecture students in Ife do.

The major issue is the degree. Do you have any other qualification?

@Junnaid,

Segun already answered.

chuglothen:
Hello house, I am the primary applicant. The dependants are my hubby and a kid. Must my hubby show priif of English? I am not submitting any certificate for him?
If yes, is there anyway ouy except English test

Yes, He must...IELTS or PTE-A. Don't bother trying to use language of instruction, you will be wasting your precious time.

Junnaid:


I do not intend using my PGD, but I need to be sure if they will accept HND in urban and regional planning? If it's accepted for 10 points as suggested by someone

You might want to include your PGD with your HND in your assessment submission. Even at this, it's a risk as we are not sure of what VETASSESS would equate your PGD as but to not include it would definitely be a negative outcome for a Skill level 1 occupation as yours.

I recall you had your PGD studies for two years. What school did you obtain it from?
@ Lawland: Please do you think you might have any information for us in this case

Michaelamo:

you will be wasting your precious time.

Why do you say so bro? Any personal experience in this regards or do you have someone whose letter of English as a language of instruction was turned down?

lekinsbaba:
Please do I need to include my ND cert for EA assessment coz my transcript shows 4 academic year(as Direct Entry candidate) instead of 5. The first year was watermark 'Direct Entry'

Definitely yes, you will upload both your ND transcript and your Bachelor degree transcript. According to EA, your ND is known as RPL ( Recognition of prior learning) because you obtained that prior to obtaining your degree, hence it counts as well.

Here is a statement from the MSA booklet and I quote:

Recognition of Prior Learning RPL

If you received credit/recognition of prior learning (RPL) for prior studies towards your qualification, you will also need to upload your original academic documents from the tertiary institution where those subjects where originally completed.

What I don't know is whether if one can claim separate points for RPL.

Hope this solve your question.

Hello everyone, I want to know if separate points can be claimed for Recognition of prior learning. How feasible can this be?

Any point for an OND holder without any higher qualification?

Mcslize:

Assuming you have two degrees, you can claim points for the highest only.

Good day all I'm an animal scientist who wishes to start his assesment with vetasse; the only experience I have is the nysc experience in a livestock farm. I was paid cash at hand by the fame and bank by nysc; I would love to ask if my application can fly. Thanks for your responses

I did it at Yabatech. It's 2yrs. I doubt if PGD will be recognized for skill level one.
But there is this thing i read on Vetassess site saying u need a 4yrs or 5yrs academic studies depending on the course for skill level one. And I observed that Urban and regional planning is 4yrs in Australia.
So what's the way forward?

Another change for 189..it's well

That's what I do not know.

Yes, 4 years if one is fortunate to have studied in a school that Australia classifies as a section 1 institution. If section 2 on the other hand, the course must have been studied for 5 years. Federal schools in Nigeria are under category 1 while state, polytechnics and private institutions are under section 2.

I'm afraid from the look of things, I'll suggest that you look into a related occupation but it's at Skill level 2 or 3. Otherwise, Canada might have something for you.

Alphadoor:



All concerns are noted with sustainability being the bane of concern here.

Yes, a lot of people have come and gone.
bellong's dedication is on a wavy level, I salute you boss.

I also strongly agree that the thread must remain, who knows if the site will work out as intended as but as a community we can make it work. Surely it will take a while before the site gains traction.

I know how people can react to change but change is a constant thing.

@bnimz @bellong @catchdwind4rmkd @azy123 @mamajaz @nnbb2012 @michaelamo @uchenna2012 @ozymigrant @teewhysafe.

@everyone

I need your support as a to drive this alternative

I will like to go ahead and work with people who are interested in setting up the modalities.

Does anyone have a suggestion for the site name :

I think this is a good development. About the concerns that most of the pioneers raised, I believe that even if it's not sustainable or active it can at least be an archive of all the important information from the thread which will be properly segregated. It can also serve as a back up in case a similar event like the one that happened years ago on Nairaland repeats it self and our data gets lost we can have some where to fall back on.

However, I don't think that the new site can be a replacement for this thread as both will have their own uniqueness.

I will suggest names like
naijaoz dot com
Nigeriatoaustralia dot com
au4naija dot com
naijamigrant dot com
skilledmigrationNG dot com
NaijatoAU dot com

I will also suggest we get a diary section on the site and/or a youtube channel to give some insight on life in Australia from different contributors. These are some of the things we lack in this thread as most of it's content if not all has been texts with little or no graphics. So many times I desire to see Nigerian Vloggers in Australia just like you will see many in America giving insight on some of their activities.

The only Australia based channel which I deemed fit to follow on youtube was that of a Filipino guy you can check out his channel on youtube with the name "Abroadero". I will like to get some recommendations of similar channels.

Thanks Lodged 11/7/2017
Sent them a mail 14/8/2017 requesting they acknowledge the receipt of my transcript and 18th assessment completed

koleefem05:

Awwww!!!
So sorry about that bro.
I'm sure you'll get good suggestions on re-assessment here. It's an opportunity to repackage and blast them. How long did your assessment take BTW?

Excellent. I love your insights.

You have said it well.

Highlighted are some of my choices also.

thanks

Alphadoor:


Sorry about the -ve assessment, from my personal experience, it's not the end, you just have to digest the result and know how to repackage.
All the best going forward

Thanks

lalaazo:
@Nanlop55, sorry about the result, however its not over yet, rebrand and repackage.
I'm sure that we have gurus here to tend to your case.
Don't give up the dream; get back on your feet and strategize.

My Msc is not Archi directly did it in Urban design so i decided to be silent about it since i have not even collected the certificate

jayooh:


I think the problem was basically with your degree, so they just negated every other thing. Seems your school are one of those that they don't assess as equal to Australia. Did u complete the MSc level of achitecture or u did only 4yrs? Cos your MSc woulda made the total study year 6

bellong:


Geez,

I thought your Architecture was 6yrs as it is done in Ife. You graduate with MSc. It is what majority of Architecture students in Ife do.

The major issue is the degree. Do you have any other qualification?

Good morning how
