I work as a design engineer electrical sensors and I’m satisfied with my chosen field of study (Masters in elect eng/specialization in telecoms).
Note we had compulsory software courses in this program.
I have friends who are software developers and have moved to Dubai for big projects. So you can’t go wrong with any of the programs I’ve listed.

It’s very easy to find a 14yr old programmer here and kids building robots because the wages for low skilled jobs are very high in Scandinavia, hence they are been replaced by technology.
Thank you for your honest posts on this thread.

Please, what are the chances for Accounting and Finance professionals as a foreigner in Sweden? Provided that one had a masters degree their coupled with work experience back home.

Why dont u come in first, then apply for your spoise and kid to join you?

If you are going to a state like bavaria I doubt if they will grant your visa with them.
Thank you Berliner for your response. Further to what you have advised, is there a chance that they will be allowed to rejoin me after getting there? Also, my targeted schools are University of Cologne and FSU, Jena. What do you think about these cities for student hustle?

Kind regards.

I doubt WES would issue a favourable assesement for the Diploma in IFRS, my reasoning is that the course is only one paper....how would WES say its equivalent to 1year post secondary diploma after getting a transcript with only one result?

I first wanted to stay clear of this ACCA discussion but I must say that you guys need to be very sure that the 3 fundamental (abi wetin dem the call am) papers will give 1year diploma equivalency ooooo, what if they give 6months? Will it still serve the purpose?

I am more convinced about the diploma you get after passing paper F9, that should be able to give you 1year.

@ the person that has ICAN, the advice that was given is not very accurate, ICAN qualifies for exemptions of papers F1 to F9 and you only write 5 professional P papers, I kid you not, the optional Ps are not a joking matter.




@Inception; I am yet to see your feedback about how the assesment of your intermediate ACCA diploma went, the house is awaiting feedback for future reference....or did I miss it?
Good evening madam and other gurus in the house.

Still on the issue of 2 certificates. Please, what is your opinion on CIMA certificates and diplomas? Has anyone here ever got a positive outcome from WES?

Thank you.

Not to sound rude but there's no way to go around this other than learn German and apply for the course.

Unfortunately not all courses are offered in English language.
@Jigba,

You do not sound rude at all and I understand the possibility of having to learn the German language. I made enquiry at Goethe Institute in Lagos but was told that they don't offer weekend classes and that's where the problem is because I work full time around lekki. It is just not workable for me.

Reason why I asked for help is to know whether it is possible and advisable for me to study the German language in Germany before applying for the masters. And if at that, how do I go about it?

Thank you.

Fellow nairalanders,

@Metabolite, Honourableseyi, Williamson, Jigba etc

Kindly help with a suggestion. I am a graduate of Accounting (2.1) as well as a working professional. I am interested in going for a master's degree in Germany. However, most schools offering Masters in Accounting and Finance require proficiency in German language which I do not have. I applied to english taught masters in economics but got rejected presumably due to my weak background in economics.

I have also checked closely related programmes like MBA and they require tuition fees.

Kindly help me out (ssuggestions/advise) on how to go about it. My major interest is the Accounting and Finance Masters.

I will appreciate everybody's responses.

Thank you.

Thanks a lot. One more thing: In this case would the "other degree recognised by assessing body" refer to the ICAN or UNN degree they've assessed as Associate Degree? Thanks a lot.
UNN degree. It is a hard choice that you have to make. Either 10 points for Associate Degree with the opportunity to claim points for work experience or 15 points for ICAN but without work experience.

zibe:
Hmm. Thank you... in trhat case they'd be no need submitting the experience assessment outcome if they call for it?
Yes. Experience assessment is not compulsory. DIBP will verify your work experience claim with relevant supporting documents.
TravelRe: General Guide To Australian Permanent Resident Visa Through Skilled Migration. by area74: 11:03am On Feb 23, 2018
zibe:
I'm not yet sure if this would be possible. I understand that Auditors/Accountants need their qualifications to be comparable to a Bsc for migration purpose. Please see the attcached results I got. Thanks
@ZIBE,

From what I read in the result, there is no harm in creating an expression of interest with the Associate Degree. Leave DIBP to use its discretion to verify your work experience.

The guy I told you about was expected to hold at least a Bachelor Degree based on the ANZCO code for his occupation. Today, he has a grant.

Since you have all the documents ready to create EOI, do it and leave the rest to fate. But, remember to select "other award recognised by the assessing authority" in the skillselect.

Just my advice.

Thank you

Hi Guys, I'm currently in a confused state. Maybe those that have assessed as accountants and auditors would be able to advise me better on the way forward with the below.

I got my CPA assessment result and while they assessed my ICAN as being equivalent to Australian BSc, they assessed my Bsc from UNN as not being equivalent to their Bsc but associate degree. The issue however is that I only just got inducted to ICAN last year, hence I will not be able to claim experience points as they start counting experience from when one's result is assessed as being equivalent to Australian Bsc.

I have 5 years of experience and this would mean me forfeiting the whole years, hence my point dropping to 65, rather than the planned 75. I had planned going for state nomination to up it to 80 but apparently this wouldn't be the case anymore.

Should I assess with another body? (CA ANZ in this case), to see if they would recognise my BSc as being equivalent to Australian Bsc, or should I just take the result as it is and move on with my life by trying Canada or so. Cos there's no way I'm getting PR with 65 points as an external auditor, not even with state nomination.

Your inputs would be really appreciated please. Thank you. cc bellong, praiseisgood and all others that can advise.
@ZIBE

Is it possible for you to make use of the Associate Degree while still claiming points for your work experience or was it expressly stated in the Assessment Report that you cannot use the Associate Degree equivalence? You will only lose 5 points and get 10 points for "other award recognised by assessing authority". Someone here shared a story that he got a grant with an assessment outcome that read Associate Degree though not accountant.

Could you please share the exact words from the assessment outcome? So far, I have been moving progressively with the Canadian PR but my heart is with the Aussie.

Thank you.

I am not sure if assessing with CA ANZ will make any difference. I assessed with them and my ICAN wasn't considered but my first degree was assessed as equivalent to Australian BA. I will just advise that you go through your school's syllabus and CA ANZ website to be sure the courses you did are in sync with those required.

Truly, I feel for we Accountants/Auditors but if you can afford it, a shot at Canada won't be a bad idea as Accountants are in 'demand' there.

It is well.
@TOSLAD,

Which school did you graduated from in Nigeria? The Australian PR journey has really put out a lot of accountants just like me. I await your response.

Good morning house,

If you are a LASUITE and have been waiting for your verification mail or want to send transcript, I have an insider information that staff of verification unit of the Exams and Records will be at the office today. Why don't you rush down to school, pay the 10,000 for verification to LASU THIRD PARTY ACCOUNT at the Sterling Bank on campus. After that, you will convert the teller to receipt at room 11, Admin Block2.

You may be lucky to get it done today just like I was on Friday.

I wish everyone all the best.

Thanks. Please were you able to process yours and can I send you a PM.
I was just lucky to get my verification done on friday. Verification request was sent by WES to LASU since November but nothing was happening. So, i went to the school on Thursday and discovered that there was skeletal activities going on by NASU. I learnt that the union gave two weeks concession that lasted on Friday 9/2/2018 in order to prepare for the forthcoming convocation. In fact, I was there when the union people wanted to send people out from the ICT building where Exams and Records is located.

I only hope that they will allow the skeletal work to continue. I am done with the verification. It was sent to WES yesterday and was acknowledged same day.

Please, who understands this message from WES as stated in my account because I was hoping that this process shouldn't take this long: 'Your evaluation is in progress. You are not required to do anything at this time.
Your evaluation is due for completion on 3/2/2018'

Good day my E-fam. Please I tried processing my transcript through a staff at the school's Records office. The attached is what I got as a transcript.
Can I send this to WES? Is this what LASU's transcript looks like?
Please if anyone has a sample of LASU's transcript,i would like to see what it looks like.
He claimed he had sent it for two weeks now but WES didn't receive anything. I applied and paid online which is the normal procedure,and only tipped him for processing not minding the strike.
To be honest with you, what you have looks like abe-igi transcript. LASU transcripts is usually sealed in the school's customised envelope. The envelop is usually taped and not stapled.

WES is very familiar with LASU process. I was at the school today and i saw a lot of correspondences between LASU and WES. That's why they take the issue of verification very serious.
