Or yung mga older adults na walang degrees but nag take ng certificate in age care... Weeks lng kasi yan eh. Or nursing students as their part time job.
Di naman recognized profession ang caregiving..though mahirap din trabaho nila. By this i mean wala sa shortage or skills lists. Its like being a kitchen aide or technical aide yung taga linis ng instruments, wait staff or other blue collar work. Certificate lng of training to get that job so walang professional body kasi short course lng sya unlike a white collar job that requires a university degree.

so by just having a caregiver certificate is not enough qualification to migrate to Australia. Basically, they need other mean to migrate like having family sponsorship or nominate other skills kung meron sila iba other thatn caregiving. tama po ba?

But saying that lets say you have an i.t. Or other profession sponsorship already so you already have a visa then you cant find work with your degree but you were able to get a caregiving job. So ok pa din to
work as caregiver diba while looking for your real line of work.
The catch is if you came on a work visa and not a p.r. Visa cause you are not in your line of work you will have a hard time getting residency.
Yan lang problem with that kasi its not a nominated skill. But otherwise still good pay naman and its a decent job but eventually you or your spouse must have a job that is in line with your degree/ nominated skill.

Our aide is pinay like a caregiver but since icu mo pt. care just equipment cleaning, she works 2 jobs and hubby is a post driver. Ok lng for them kasi they have been here for 25 plus years so the mortgage is almost paid off.. The kids finished na ng uni. But she told me before when the kids were all in school sila both couple double job.
Accountants if CPA in australian meaning degree is from here talaga.. Pay is good almost 70- 80 plus thou a year same with us in allied health eg nurses. Pt. ot etc.
Doctors are still paid highest with a start pay of 80-100 thou a year. Starting pay pa lang yan,, no penal rates pa and ot.. Which most doctors do.

Also backread sa thread... People have been saying you cant apply for a visa using caregiving as a profession kasi wala po sa skills list ng immigration. Hence, walang employer pwding mag sponsor. Only jobs on the immigration list na may shortage pwdi mag sponsor ang employer.
So why and how will they be able to sponsor someone for said certificate course when hindi nila maipasa visa pa lng with immigration kasi hind listed as a skill shortage ang caregivers/PCA?
Only way is to get a visa on your own. What fheng is saying.. There are nursing homes offering the course which you pay for personally and if there are job vacancy after your training they will be able to hire you if wala naman at least you have a certificate sa age care.

And just because of ielts.. You wont go for it?
Then if you study here.. You will be spending money instead of earning money in a course you are not sure there are job hiring,
