My $1000000 advice, if you docs have other handiworks even if it is on the trade occupation list like painting, plumbing, etc, just get assessed with it when you get there you will find your square root as a doctor. Then, you will know that owo Abu le maa fi sabu lalejo I.e, you will do your exams and registration with their currency.
Hope l don't sound like slighting our ever efficient professionals?

tonymd:

LOL, you are quite funny ma'am, well there are other jobs like the ones i listed above occupational therapy, primary health organization manager, medical administrator, welafare manager.

Thats why Im asking Bellong and other well informed member of the group if VETASSES can give doctors positive assessment so we can go ahead, when we get there we write the Aussie medical board exams as there are no centres in Africa to write the exam. Thank you for your 1MILL advice, I ll certainly go with it. Perhaps you can help if you have more accurate info

Thanks

mamajaz:

My fear with the ones you mentioned above is vetasses, acwa too want people with social works and stuffs, the way vetasses dey behave like mad cow is shocking and for me it's not easy to throw money around and about at this point in time.
So, if you must go for any of the ones you mentioned above be sure you pass through the skill assessment support service

tonymd:


skill assessment support service will cost how much ma'am, and how do I do that. Thank you

Please house bail me out, a friend is working with a private institution where salary is paid by hands.
What will she present as payslip please.
This is kinda urgent

bellong:


The company can prepare payslip for her. That shouldn't be hard. She doesn't even have a third party evidence of payment.

What kind of company does hand payment in this age. Not scared of robbers

cuteannie02:



Well I had the same issue, most farms pay by hand, all I did was go to the company to request for payslips, with the help o of d accountant and the manager and little research on the Internet for acceptable formats, it's doable

ahdebayo:
Please, if i decide to use statement of account in lieu of payslip; can I use the statement generated from my account online? or need to visit the bank? thanks

The whole point of the story I wrote up there is that since your BSC was from the UK, you do not need to claim any work experience... Which means you don't need any tax certificates.....

Just apply for Assessment under WASHINGTON ACCORD pathway..

Or is it inside Washington accord pathway that they asked for tax certificates?

Pinoralia:


Online generated account statement.

Capital YES.
That s what I used and my CO didn't ask any question about it. Had it been I ordered for hard copy from my bank, it will be like 70pages or more. I will:

-spend much money collecting that from bank.
-spend time scanning, converting and merging it as PDF files.
- it will turn out to be a very heavy document. Don't forget document size is stated by DIBP.

Jetspeed:

Congrats bro.

I wrote mine yesterday (11/11/2016) but when i checked my result today the status says '' Result not reportable'' Has any test taker in the house experience this before?

Okosay:
it means your result is not ready. Wait small...

abbyjo:
Good day, please has anyone assessed as a baker before?

bellong:


If you have the qualification and work experience, it is pretty easy. Just follow the assessing authority's instructions.

Hi all, i am glad to finally make this post. The migration journey for me just ended. God has been EXTREMELY gracious to me. landing in this country with a little less than 1000 dollars in February last year, i have successfully graduated in my masters program, obtained a professional job as an environmental consultant while still on bridging visa, and achieved what i couldn't achieve in Nigeria in 5 years all within a stretch of 20 months. i am grateful to the guidance of so many people on this thread. ie Zenkel who showed me how to arrive australia through malaysia on a shoe string budget of 150k, Boss jennakry who enlightened me on opportunities i never knew existed and others who helped and encouraged me on the journey. i will settle down and summarize some important key information yet to be shared on this forum that will help enable new arrivals find a professional job, and also 476 visa holders looking for extra 5 points on what to do to dodge the english bedrock while drilling through to permanent residence. i will also like to encourage others going through a lot of pain and doubting their decisions especially those who came via school route with their partners, it can only get better, don't loose hope. stay focused, the light awaits you at the end of the tunnel.

Thanks guys.. really appreciate the congratulations..

ehen, lemme begin.

Na speaking dey generally give headache during PTE, here are some tips I got while preparing and followed strictly.

1. Record yourself.. as in,, recoooord.. again and again, in different voices and accents, to see which one clear pass.. See me for example, i get one kind baritone voice... Just one recording showed me that this thing no go work ooo. na so I edit am.. I took the entire speaking section of the exam in a girly voice... simply because, as I dey practice, na that tone of voice clear pass for the recordings... Change your accent if you have to,, remember its not a human that is listening. Its a computer.

2. Pronunciation.. Chidike said he spoke in phonetics.... For this our default naija accent, we have the tendency to pronounce everything at the same volume.... nay nay.. no be so e dey work.. at least not according to the tips I read... dem say, you must put stress, raise volume, lower volume appropriately to show emphasis....

3. Please and please dont repeat yourself .. Na this thing important pass.. for each repetition, your communicative skills dey drop.. your vocabulary dey drop, your oral fluency dey drop

3A. Abeg, in the name of God, dont CORRECT YOURSELF.. if you dey misyarn, dey misyarn smoothly go... Content is only one third of the scoring... as long as what youre saying is broadly related to the topic, no correct any mistake o.. na fluency dey drop so... lemme give you one example.. During my test, they asked, Which country in the united kingdom has the 3rd largest population... Na Wales. I know say na Wales. My brain dey think Wales.. my mouth yarn Scotland ... chei.. as I hear am, me sef shock... but I no change am o... and as you can see, e no affect result... the exam is a test of English, not a test of knowledge... If at that point, I said, SCOTLAND, ah, no, sorry, WALES, ... the computer go reason am say, which kind sentence be that? and oral fluency go drop, communicative skills go drop, grammar go drop...

3B. which brings me to the next subtopic. Always complete your sentences.. lets assume you see a pie chart,, you wan describe, your mouth talk say, The BAR GRAPH....... ..... NO CHANGE AM O.... just continue. after that sentence finishes, you fit con dey call am Pie chart from the next sentence... This is because, the computer reads the pauses for commas, and the pause that ends a sentence. if you say, The BAR GRAPH, con correct yaself say, the PIE CHART, what the computer sees is, THE BAR GRAPH THE PIE CHART, blah blah blah..... now which kind sentence be that one? na scores e dey affect.

I dey run go somewhere.. I go continue once I get small free time..

Hello house,
I've been following this thread quietly for some time now, it is very informative. Kudos! to everyone.

I want to know if there won't be any issues with the Engineering assessment body for someone who has a BSc in Chemistry and MSc Chemical Engineering, for the purpose of PR.

Pinoralia:
I just looked thru Engr Aust. MSA booklet. See this cropped screenshot.

I think it's your First Degree that they reckon with. Your first degree academic transcript will be submitted too.

Dunno if Engr Aust can assess you as an engineer if you have significant years of experience practicing Chemical Engineering.
What you based your career episode on has to be pure engineering (not applied science).

Your assessment outcome will carry the following:
-Course of study.
-Year of Completion.
-Institution Name.
-Australian Qualification Framework Level.

Surest Bet:
Send an e-mail Engineer Australia. if you have practiced chemical Engineering, state how long you 've done that. I pray they are impressed.
All the best my brother.

Thanks!
