    @heyits7me_mags

    Kelan ka nagpaasses? I read sa ibang forums na some people were able to request for an updated skills assessment para masama yung equivalent to AQF.

    I'm guessing this is a new thing July 2011 onwards dahil sa changes sa DIAC rules for 2011 so if narequest mo sya after July 2011, then I guess pwede pa ipabago. But there is no harm in trying. Email mo lang yung dating CO mo for ACS, who knows, baka palitan.

    @itchan, May 2011 na release yung result namin, eh. Na try ko na email yung CO namin mga August 2011 pa pero walang reply, alam mo ba kung kanino pwede i-address yung request of AQF? baka kasi kaya walang reply dahil under contract lang mga CO sa ACS..wala na kasi sa ACS ang CO namin eh.

    Pag ang school mo ay nasa section 2 or 3 hindi malinaw na makuha mo ang 15pts. para sa Educ. Qualification ang sure lang na 15pts. ang makukuha nyan ay yung mga school na nasa section 1. Yung school kasi ng hubby ko ay section 2 kaya assumed na namin ang 10pts. unless sa skills assessment mo ay may nakalagay na comparable to AQF-Australian Qualification Framework mabibigyan ka ng 15pts. Eto yung sa ACS skills assessment ha, hindi ko lang alam sa ibang assessing body. Si ACS kasi kahit nakalagay na sa point system at nauna na ang DIAC na...

    "To claim points for a qualification obtained overseas, the qualification will need to be recognised as being of a standard comparable to the relevant Australian level qualification. Generally, applicants will be able to request an opinion on their qualification claims from the relevant assessing authority when seeking their skills assessment. For further information about this process, applicants should contact the relevant assessing authority.

    huli na sila nag indicate ng AQF comparable ka pala pag ang assessment ay PIM 3, Grp. A.

    @Bryann

    AQF is Australian Qualifications Framework. Eto yung hierarchy ng educational attainment sa australia. So dapat comparable ka sa bachelor's degree in australia which is a level 7 attainment (if im not mistaken) sa AQF.

    @Heyits7me: bummer naman yun at new application pa...

    Anyhow, wala pa atang naprocess na July 2011 applications so hindi pa rin ata sure na maawardan ka ng 15 pts kahit sabihin ng ACS na comparable to Bachelors sa AQF yung school mo kung sa CEP e section 2 yung school.

    Medyo ambiguous kasi yung disclaimer ng ACS saying DIAC reserves the right to validate and issue appropriate points sa application mo (since hindi ma-vouch ng ACS ung authenticity ng nisubmit na docs)kung work experience lang ba yun iavalidate ng DIAC or kasama pa yung educational attainment kahit sinabi na ng ACS na comparable ka..

    Ang di ko lang alam (na baka issue a) is kung narrsearch mo ba kung okay lang sa DIAC na walang nakalagay na comparable to whatnot yung assessment mo? Kasi sabi nga sa DIAC website dapat naassess ng appropriate assessing body (ACS on our case) un educ qualifications mo d b? So baka kelangan mo pa din talaga magpa-certify ulet? (haka haka ko lang to)

    Yeah katakot yun gastos eh, malaking amount din un.

    @nono
    Not necessarily. Sa ACS ginawa ko yun reference letter since ako gumawa, in detail talaga siya. Like main duties and responsibilities, technologies and tools used, # of peeps sa team. And then yun CV ko is parang supplement lang, summarized na siya nilagay ko lang companies I've worked for, the duration of my employment, tapos position. Yun lang. Kaya 1 page lang CV ko.

    mga kapatid... if ung skills assessment result contained the text:
    ".... has been assessed as comparable to an AQF Bachelor Degree with a major in computing"

    does this guarantee you 15pts o hindi?

    thanks!

    I guess oo. Kasi sinasabi ng ACS comparable un kurso mo sa Australian degree. Ako naman baka 10pts lang, kasi nakasulat AQF Diploma with a major in computing.

    Medyo nakakalito lang yung ending clause ng skills assessment that says (non-verbatim):

    "Please note that the DIAC reserves the right to undertake further investigation regarding your skilled employment experience.

    While ACS is authorised to assess ICT skills, the final decision of awarding points remains with DIAC.

    This assessment is based on the documents provided and by issuing this letter, ACS makes no representation regarding:
    1. authenticity of documents
    2. suitability for migration of the applicant"

    So sa part na yan ang question is

    Final na ba ang educational qualification na binigay ng ACS, then ang ireview lang ng DIAC is yung skills assessment or both Educational Qualification ba and Skills Assessment e kelangang ireview pa ni DIAC?

    If the latter is the case, then hindi pa rin sure siguro ang mga section 2-3 schools na inassess ng ACS to have a comparable bachelor's degree sa AQF (like me)...

    Yun... Here's hoping na final na ang qualification decision ng ACS though, kasi nakapagsubmit na ako at sayang naman ang almost 3K AUD bwahahah!

    Job duties and responsibilities should be specific.

    What kind of assistance?
    what kind of guidance?
    what analysis?
    what review?

    Download ka ng sample duties ng Systems Analyst sa web baka sakaling makatulong, sayo. Cheers.

    Thanks @tootzke. Ganon pala talaga dapat ka detailed. Kaso nga lang di naman pwede i disclose ang ibang details. Pero I'll try my best.

    @Bryann medyo nabasa ko na yan kala ko nga align lang talaga pero kailangan pala detailed which is tama naman. kasi nga di naman ako nag aapply nang trabaho kundi nag papa assess.
    Feb. 18 din pala ang retake mo.. Ako din sir BC din..
