Check the number of weeks you have to appeal. if it is up to 4weeks, use it for EA assessment (fast track), then appeal after it.

Na the way forward be that I believe.. I just hope EA doesn't assess me as a Technologist... That one go just throw cold water on my ginger

The struggle continues.

metrecube:
Too bad ke. This is not bad. Are you looking for 20 points? i'm not sure calling for a review would be a nice step coz of 7.5 in two modules. It will be better if its only one module. You can go for PTE - A if you want to claim 20 points from English proficiency.

I need 20 points.. i've already lost 5 points from age, and I don't have enough work experience to claim. As it stands, a positive assessment will put me at 50 points .. na why I talk say "Too bad" .. No be say band 8.5 bad .. haba.. .. na the score arrangement no pure for its intended use.

@Bnimz,

The last two are subjective in nature, if I were you, I would appeal the two.

yes boss. once dem roger certificate on monday, i'll appeal.

however, wait o.. can I use the result while its under appeal? I want to assess with EA asap

guys my IELTS just got released... viewed online

Listening: 9.0
Reading: 9.0
Writing: 7.5
Speaking: 7.5


Overall: 8.5

Too bad. what do you guys think, should I call for a review of the last two or just register for PTE-A straightaway

Please we need all the gurus to be available here at all times, don't make them have divided attentions.
My view though.

I agree.. This thread has history, someone new to the process can always go back to read questions that have been asked and answered. A whatsapp group doesnt have that.. the gurus go end up answering the same set of questions over and over and over with each new person that is added.

This thread remains the best forum in my opinion

Thanks... make i sharply rearrange...

Question for the Engineers.. I have read the whole MSA user guide from EA - it is possible I missed it - but I did not see anything about the Chronology of the CDR as a whole pertaining to each CER.... So I want to ask, Is there a specific chronology? do we write from most recent to the oldest, or from oldest to most recent;;;

for example if I have 3 episodes from 2012, 2013, 2014

is there a specific rule that says maybe CER 1 MUST BE 2012, CER 2 = 2013, CER 3 = 2014

OR , CER 1 = 2014, CER 2 = 2013, CER 3 = 2012

If there is no such rule,, what arrangement is recommended? Abi it doesnt matter? Thanks

(i've finished writing two... i'm on the last one, na why I dey ask)

Actually the post sounded more like an elder bro scolding his lazy sibling... just saying..

The message is clear though...

You only need to let "...EACH element be reflected in at least one paragraph of ANY OF THE THREE EPISODES...."

chai, Thanks oooo.. You just reduced the task by 90 percent

small question for the house .. I'm drafting the CDR for Engineers Australia and still writing CER 1.. but one small problem dey.. i've been looking at the summary statement and I dey get headache.. so I need to ask; Is it necessary for EACH CAREER EPISODE to contain ALL THE ELEMENTS in the summary statement?

or is it that EACH element must be reflected in at least one paragraph of ANY OF THE THREE EPISODES....

I say make I ask before my head go reach critical temperature

THANKS

Hello.....my student copy of transcript is boldly written.... "Not for official use" and my school only sends official copy rather than hand over to students....and MSA booklet says "official transcript".

Same as my school. That is not a problem though. Apply for a transcript with your school using the official address of anybody you know; could be a friend's office. For example, I sent mine to my dad's office. Of course you'll inform the person, so when it arrives, the person will simply hand over to you..

Voila, Official Transcript in hand.

Bros Bellong, I have a final question of my own..

After graduation (Electrical Engineering), my Nysc was at a Ministry of Power and Energy.. while I do not intend to claim any work experience, (I no kuku get enough years), I was thinking I could use the experience from that one as a career episode and call it an UNPAID graduate attachment that I did for Continuing Professional Development...

Reason be say I feel its a strong plus for me, and I don"t want to just let it waste like that, it wont be easy to generate 3 career episodes from I.T and Project alone...

anyway, enough story

My question is,, is this possible? wont they attempt to treat it like experience?

Will they accept a career episode that looks and sounds like work experience as NOT BEING work experience?

Thanks...

Hi all,

For all the engineers in the house, is it recommended to do the skilled work assessment? my brother recently got a positive assessment as an electrical engineer and is skeptical about paying another fee for the assessment what is your advice? if the assessment is recommended, what other supporting documents can he include apart from the reference letter, offer letter, promotion letter, confirmation of appointment, bank statement and pension statement. he does not have his payslips.

Your suggestion will be highly appreciated.

I dont understand ... he got a positive assessment... what does he need another assessment for?

bellong:
Bnimz,

You get your visa via email. It is e-visa

Thanks boss.. That one don dey cleared up.... second question, I read the MSA guide in full, and my understanding of it was that assessment is divided into Professional Engineer, Engineering Technologist and Engineering Associate WITHIN your specific engineering profession..

However, from what i've been reading on this thread, it appears that for example: If you apply for assessment as an Electrical Engineer (professional engineer) and assessment comes out and classifies you as Engineering Technologist (which is the most likely outcome without work experience), you can no longer apply for 189 or 190 as an ELECTRICAL ENGINEER, but only as an Engineering Technologist.

is this correct??

Kudos to everybody who has contributed to this great thread...

There is a question bothering me that i've been unable to find an answer to after reading every page of this thread.

Please, those who have gotten 189 or 190, where did you get your visas? I mean the physical visa that goes in the Passport..

Reason why I'm asking this is because, I'm in the UK and I would like to avoid a situation where application is made in the UK, UK visa runs out, decision is made, visa is granted, however, i'll then have to return to UK for the Visa..

That kind thing no go make sense at all...

Please clarify. Thanks
