Do people send course outline for assessment?

Please do we have anyone that assessed this occupation before? probably someone with accounting.


Financial Investment Adviser (ANZSCO Code 222311)

@webmaster3,

Did you add the course outline with your application or just transcript?

Please ensure you send them a lengthy mail on why your 5 year course is not associate degree.

All the best

@scalard

I guess ur degree is 4years from a tier 2 uni.

My advice, review with d employment you left out.

Dont remove the bsc 2005 is better than 2010.

ACS will take 5to6yrs from ur exp for associate degree, hence the skilled date of 2012.

If you add the 2yrs plus left out, new skilled date would be 2010 if the month is first half them you can have 8yrs by early 2018.

Just frm my own lil exp but wait for Oga Alphador.

Hello House,

I have been following this thread for about 3 months now, and I would like to appreciate everyone here, it has been so informative and helpful.

To Bellong, azy123, misoke and acs gurus in the house, my case is as stated below and I would appreciate your candid advice.

Qualification: B Sc Mathematical Sciences (Computer Science Option) From University of Agriculture - 2005
Occupation: Analyst Programmer (261311)
Post NYSC Experience:
1. April 2007 - June 2008 ( 1 Yr 2 Months)
2. July 2008 - April 2012 ( 3 Yrs 10 Months)
3. May 2012 - Date (5 Yrs 5 Months)
Total: 10 Yrs 5 Months

Certifications:
1. Microsoft Certified IT Professional (August 2010)
2. Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist (August 2010)

ACS Assessment - 23rd October 2017 and got the result as stated below;


Your skills have been assessed to be suitable for migration under 261311 (Analyst Programmer) of the ANZSCO Code.

[color=#FF6347]Your qualifications have been assessed as follows:
Your Bachelor of Science in Mathematical Sciences (Computer Science Option) from University of Agriculture completed September 2005 has been assessed as comparable to an AQF Associate Degree with a Major in computing.
Your Microsoft Certified IT Professional from Microsoft completed August 2010 has been assessed as comparable to an AQF Diploma with a Major in computing.
Your Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist from Microsoft completed August 2010 has been assessed as comparable to an AQF Diploma with a Major in computing.

The following employment after November 2012 is considered to equate to work at an appropriately skilled level and relevant to 261311 (Analyst Programmer) of the ANZSCO Code. [/color]



NOTE:
1. I have some professional experience during school as I was working on part-time and full time on holidays (as a freelance Programmer) from February 2002 - December 2004 (2 Yr 11 Months)
2. I have post qualification experience from May 2005 - March 2006 right from when I finished from school while waiting for service and during service that I did not submit for the assessment (10 Months)
Both Experiences stated above is from the same company and I can get reference letter.


Since I can't get 15 points for Degree, is there a way I can get 15 points for experience. I was just thinking of review and adding the experience that I left out and probably remove the B Sc and use Microsoft certification as the qualification which would equally give 10 Points

Total Experience would be: 2 Yr 11 Months + 10 Months + 1 Yr 2 Months + 3 Yrs 10 Months + 5 Yrs 7 Months = 14 Yrs 4 Months

@toslad please support with response. Thanks quote author=Tuteso post=62995646]Toslad, pls what body did you assessed with? Also do you know of anyone Unilorin that got positive assessment?

Hope you didnt use ICAN that might have led to the degree.

Thanks in anticipation.[/quote]

toslad:
Area74, my school is tier 2 too (Olabisi Onabanjo University) I don't think the assessing bodies for Accountant look at the tier thing if your courses are actually in sync with what is required. You never know till you try.

As per associate qualification being able to get into the pool for Accountant, I truly doubt as the minimum is Bachelors. Even those of us with positive assessment outcomes have been waiting since April (in my case).

[quote author=area74 Degree.

Dears

I need support with quick clarification

if someone is on visa 485 till April 2018 can he apply to study in June 2018 and apply for student visa like a week before the visa 485 expires?

Also will he have to leave Australia till sch resumes in June?

Or remain

Happy Birthday to a great man. Many more years.

mamajaz:
No vex for the accusation bro. You know "we" ( I and the triplets inside my pregnancy ) don dey defend you nah.
@STAugustineOf13, gently oh. It is well.
That being said, I want to appreciate people who rose to my situation these past 6 weeks or more.
AHPRA actually wanted some docs from me, about four. I was able to get three, but my professional body ( Nursing and Midwifery council Nigeria) couldn't get a sheet of paper signed from 11th September till 19th October. Several efforts were made, chief Bellong was with me through it all, Kingbukaz tried all within his ability, Nanlop was at the council for me, and three other people on different occasions, oscar offered to help out too, Monica was there, Jamson, Bnimz, mctowel01, Teejay80, Sol and many others were with me in the situation. Unfortunately, my application was withdrawn on the 25th of this month ( the withdrawal note ought to have been given me on 22nd). The stress of the ups & downs, financial commitment which the bleeped up people at the helms of affairs caused me were much on me and the sadness of unfruitful efforts were heavy on me.. To make matters worst, I got the letter few hours after my application was withdrawn.
...but through it all, I've learnt to depend upon the lord.
I want to appreciate my family members ( blood & efam). May God crown our efforts with success, Rinzylee, ugsams, you're much respected. How can I forget phlunter01, my sister and counselor in all these, or nkechima who left her own travail to pray with me in the scorching sun of unyielding manager?? God bless you all. May God "say yes" to our migration dreams.

Please need help with this question?

Cc Anybody lol

Thank you Jesus. All Glory be to God.
Special thanks to everyone of you that make up this community rendering selfless services to complete strangers. May God bless you all and make your dreams come true. To all those still waiting- God has a plan for you. It may tarry, but wait for it. It will happen in its time and will equally be as glorious. No such thing as delay with God.

19/10/17: Grant (GSM Adelaide)

Didn't know it will take this long hence my reason for quoting my old post. "He has made everything beautiful in its time...." Ecc 3:11
I learnt patience mehn! I also experienced different episodes during the wait. The last episode where I didn't care anymore and focused on other projects in my life mad a lot of sense (The earlier you got into this phase the better cos you won't have to worry about DIBP or be waking up early to check emails ).

Notes: I uploaded OPV initially and I thought it was in the appropriate section. Anyway, make sure you upload under the appropriate heading and NAME accordingly
International passport was uploaded under birth certificate but CO returned to ask for birth Cert again (clearly depends on your CO). Luckily I was already processing one from National Population Commission at the time of application.
Experience matters
I didn't assess experience with EA even though my Career episodes were strictly based on my work experience. Interestingly, no experience verification was done by DIBP (I had approached my HR last week to confirm. Don't know if any contact was made afterwards).

Now I can focus. Decisions will be easier to make now. Should I change car? Renew rent? Buy this or that? Apply for that job? etc. Off to prepare for some certifications before leaving.

What about the PTE, how easy was it to make 79 in each?

Cottyekundayo:
Your second attempt was better than my IELTS. I don't think you need any tip from me. Nonetheless, all I can recommend is that you improve on what you have done to get second result. Writing can be a pain in the ass, especially with an essay topic you have little or no clue about. Best regards bra

First IELTS 2014 - L8 R7.5 S7 W6

Second IELTS Aug 2017 - L8 R9 S7 W7

Third IELTS Oct 2017 - planned for 28th, results will be out the second week in Nov. If same PTE( reading already) all the way.

just need that 20 to make 70 for my ITA... @Cottyekundayo, pls share all the tips you can, got my speaking this weekend.

Akachukwu123:
Thanks bro...
Reading and listening have been my issue.
So sad I can't make a "7" in IELTS reading
Still confused on the one to register yet

Thanks.

Cognito79:
Yes, masters and PhD by research.

Is masters free when you have a PR?

Cognito79:
I reckon it will be faster for you than your wife. This is my opinion and it is up to you to take it or leave it. If you are not very desperate and in urgent to leave Nigeria, suspend the student application process and start your PR.

Nominate bricklayer as your occupation. Check anzsco description for bricklayer or any other related occupation to building. Building technician is not on the list, bricklayer comes very close..

Age- ?
Qualification. 10
Experience. 15
English?

Fill the two blank, bricklayer is not competitive, you can get invitation fast provided you can get 60-65points.

The decision is up to you but if I were in your situation, I wouldn't spend such money on student visa when I can get a PR and still get to do masters for free.

Based on my own experience, 4-year courses from Unilorin will fetch you 10.

crownnygold:
Thanks alot!

Good one, you will get there... trying my hands on IELTS on the 28th if i dont make the 20, i will be focusing on PTE all the way. Thanks to afolaseg, got me hooked up with the Gold kit already.

Hope my head no go scatter for this Tier1 and Tier2 thing.

Can we just get the document?

@Alphadoor, can it be all 5 year courses in a Tier 2 university are equivalent to AQF Bachelor and the 4 year courses are not while in Tier 1, either 5 year or 4 year courses are AQF Bachelor.

I just tire... the ACCA or ICAN angle too hmmm.

Alphadoor:
Both assertions abi na assumption is not accurate.
I know someone from madonna university who got AQF bachelor for his engineering degree, as bellong & toslad mentioned....OOU degree is also equivalent AQF Bachelor, none of the schools i mentioned is on your exception list.

Hmmm, that's my point, Unilorin and this Tier 2 thing is a problem. I will be glad if @Praiseisgood confirms his school too. Or if anyone got assessment of a 4 year course degree, from a Tier 2 university, as a equal to Aussie bachelor's.

bellong:
@Toslad,

OOU is actually grouped as Tier 1 University..

@kingbukaz, yes, with ACS.

Sorry inno4u, I don't have the document. [quote author=inno4u post=61140282][/quote]

I appreciate your support in this issue. I've communicated to him to get course outline, match each description on transcript to cpa courses. Hopefully with all the points covered, he will get a positive feedback.

Also, I might b needing ur help to review before he submits for final assessment.

Thank you once again and I will be getting in touch soon.

toslad:
I studied at Olabisi Onabanjo University and it was a four year course. If the person is assessing as an Accountant, he should go through CPA and CA sites to check the courses and ensure they are in tandem with the courses he did in school. Vetassess also assesses 4 year course as being equivalent to AQF so I understand his point/concern.

Also, I do not think the class of degree matters during the assessment (I stand to be corrected). He should review the courses as earlier advised and go ahead with his assessment.

Thanks for the feedback. The person in question finished with a 3rd class in Accounting from the University of Ilorin. Most 4 year degrees from Unilorin are assessed as Associate degree ( like mine with ACS) and coupled with the 3rd class might be reason for matching it as Diploma.

I am not sure the school's syllabus was submitted but based on experience, he will only get Associate degree ( not sure if same as Diploma.. lol) due to Unilorin being a Tier 2 according to AQF standard.

toslad:
Hello Tuteso,

I disagree that Naija degrees are equivalent to Australian diplomas. I read Accounting from a Nigerian University and was assessed as being equivalent to Australian Bachelors (assessed with CAAnz). Praiseisgood read Accounting in a Nigerian University and assessed with CPA and got a positive outcome.

So, please go through the skill requirements and obtain the school's syllabus.

I don't really understand the issue with the job here. If the person didn't burn bridges, getting references and documents shouldn't be a problem (I presume) or he can make do with a statutory declaration.

Thank you.



If your courses (reason for requesting for school's syllabus) are in sync with the require

This cannot work o. just digested information on CPA. Qualification must be equivalent to Australia Bachelors in Accounting. Experience will be counted from date qualification is obtained. Only way is to hug English to get 75.

Tuteso:
My Oga and Gurus,

Need help with clarification for a bro in Aussie who needs to assess as an Accountant with CPA.

Calculation below states 80 but few concerns with the Naija experience.

Graduated 2007 frm Unilorin, worked from 2005 to 2008, another 2008 to 2014 then travelled to Aussie. Cos he took loan with coy, worked temporarily for the Coy from Aussie in order to offset loan throughout is study period (2014-2016). Started work in Aussie from 2016 till date.

My question, can he get successful employment assessment for Naija work period, keeping in mind Naija degree equates to Diploma and not Bachelor.

I will appreciate all support on this. Thanks and great day all.

Good morning house

I wrote my first pte last month 8th sept and got R s w l as 78 71 83 and 79.A day before that,I took the mock test and got r s w l as 72 60 73 and 70.other stuff increased substantially in the enabling skills except pronunciation which was 49 on both occasions.i hope it helps people that want to write later.I did not do much thing different except that I spoke on a faster pace and more careful when reading and listening.i need at least 79 in each of the communicative skills.e2language videos helped me to understand the test.It was just regrettable that I did not prepare so much for the test.i just need to work harder especially on pronunciation

Oga bellong,

Please how do you check?

I need to contact my alumni to do what is necessary for proper classification.

I will appreciate if you can quite me.

bellong:
It is a tier 2 University.

What is your occupation?

Which occupation are you assessing for and why do you want to add the MSc qualification?
