@Config Thanks for your response. Just want to get some inside info from you as someone in my field who has been on ground for awhile. .

catchdwind4rmkd:
changing your MSc course may not necessarily have an effect on your assessment and eventual application. EA assessment is based mainly on a bachelors degree which is expected to have been completed with 4yrs or more modules.

But I'd reckon your MSc doesn't have that huge impact; say your first degree is in a course that's not on the list and you complete your msc in a course on the list, you still won't get positive assessment outcome from EA.

Thanks Alphadoor,

My brother from another mother.

I have been advised to write RPL and get an earlier skill met date. This would push me to 65 points as English test is not cooperating (done twice already)

Please anyone who has an RPL that has been used successfully please help. Even if it is for another ICT profession I will use it as guidance.

Specifically I want to write RPL for 263111 - computer Network and system Engineer.

Thanks all

Dear E-Family,

This is to introduce myself to the thread as I start this PR journey. I had to read the thread from page 0 to 306. Took about a week. Time well spent. I have learnt a lot here. Found this thread at the threshold of committing to a masters programme that I would have to go and hustle the fees in OZ. Thanks to you all, Thurnbull would be paying for this after PR.

My special thanks and recognition to the founding father, bellongg, and every other person that has sacrificed and contributed to the development of this thread. I felt so happy when it was resolved to modify and continue this thread after the April changes by the Border Department. You guys are saving lives here. God bless you all.

Congratulations to all that have gotten the grant. And success to those at one stage or the other.

i gba dun your paroll

Sincerely MOFE PR (I want PERMANENT RESIDENCE )

Hello house, please tell me this isn't right! My first degree is in Petroleum engineering and I intend to study environmental engineering in oz, does this mean i wont be eligible for PR after my msc degree because Petroleum Engineering isnt on the sol/csol list?

Good day Oga Bellong and all my other Ogas and guru in the house.
I've been following this thread closely, and been digesting the details comment to comment and page to page. Good job I must say, and thumbs up to all of you for the insight, guidance and suggestions. It's been positive vibes here.

Having gone through all the details provided, please I have some questions, clarification and insight based on the details below:

Bachelor of Agriculture---2010
NYSC experience---------Human Resources and Occupational Health and Safety----2011/2012
Sales Manager experience since December 2013 till date in two different multinationals---December 2013 Till date (2017).
IELTS Score: O.A-7.0, L-7.5, R-6.0, W-6.5, S-8.0.

QUESTION:
Should I go ahead with skill assessment in Sales Manager or wait till July 1, 2017 when new occupation is updated by the Northern Territory who seems to be the only state I meet the minimum requirement, and offering a nomination on this occupation


Using the point calculator, I already have 55 points out of the required 60 points based on my own assessment though.
Thank you all, and hoping to get an insight from your pool of experience.

akereconfi:

Please can you explain how you want to get more points since English exam ain't helping matters.

(Writing RPL)

We might be in the same shoe

PS: What's the meaning of RPL

bolaobby:


Please do all you can to get it changed. Its not easy for students paying the bills although they still work and get the bills paid but it wouldn't be good to go through all the pains and not be able to use it for PR purpose.

This land is full of opportunity for all although your journey will be faster with PR than student visa and many of the student i have met here does not even know that it is possible to process PR from Naija. The ultimate aim of majority of them is to get PR because things would have been more easier for them.

RPL = Recognition of Prior Learning.

This would be used to determine your fit intandem with your years of experience for your nominated occupation..

If your degree is non ICT and you apply for an assessment with ACS and you do not have a certification that is equated to a diploma (CCNP, CCDP,
CCIE, MCSE) by ACS, then have the option of writing about two projects that you executed within the period being assessed which prove that you have gained Bachelors level knowledge in ICT.

You are expected to address four topics covering the two broad areas of the ACS body of knowledge https://www.google.com.ng/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.acs.org.au/content/dam/acs/acs-documents/The-ACS-Core-Body-of-Knowledge-for-ICT-Professionals-CBOK.pdf&ved=0ahUKEwjNz87C_b3UAhVKPVAKHe56BKkQFggoMAE&usg=AFQjCNGg3bx1rySHM1TAgEvuRD-IELdaUA&sig2=QvjJmvCRUlWYXn2a_eir0g.

This would be used to determine your fit intandem with your years of experience for your nominated occupation.

It is EA. You just gave me a complete respond. God bless you abundantly.

mctowel01:

You can get assessed as an engineering technologist.

jackson2dye4:

Even if my masters is in petroleum / environmental engineering?

yungmin:
Please, I need a sample reference letter. Kindly help, thanks

koleefem05:
Thanks @bolaobby.
So should I just forget my years of experience in sales and just go ahead doing an assessment as an Agricultral consultant? Remember I don't have any experience in Agriculture, just my first degree. @Alphadoor @bellong @mamajaz and other gurus. Please I need to make a move. Thanks Sir/Ma.

yungmin:


Sample reference letter pls. Kindly send to joenakoko@gmail.com. thanks
