@J_Oz@gerardds Ah ok gets. So if i-consider nila as non-ICT ang course ko, pwede na kaya yung 6 years experience ko? (4yrs BA + 2yrs PM + RPL) since may Project Management din naman na skills ang required from a BA? What do you think? Mahirap ba na route yung may RPL?

@mmm_85 sabi sa ACS dapat daw relevant work experience.
The term “Relevant work experience” means work experience which is closely related to the nominated occupation (ANZSCO) and performed at a professional ICT level.
You may want to check yong requirements for Business Analyst.
eto kinuha ko dun sa ACS Guideline
4 – Recognition of Prior Learning – (RPL) The RPL application is for applicants with Non ICT or insufficient ICT qualifications, or do not hold any tertiary ICT qualifications.
6 years of full time professional ICT work experience in a field closely related to the nominated ANZSCO Code is required if you hold a Non ICT or insufficient ICT qualification and 8 years if you do not have any qualifications.
You are required to submit 2 Project Reports for an RPL application - ACS Project Report Form (RPL).
Each report must provide a detailed description of a career episode in your employment history with sufficient detail of evidence in applying the claimed knowledge in a working situation.
Ensure you sign the “Declaration of Authorship” when completing the project report. The Recognition of Prior Learning Project Report must be entirely your own work and not submitted by another person, a paid writing business or editing agency.
All quoted or paraphrased material must be clearly referenced and all sources noted in the Project Report.
Failure to disclose information include in the Project Report that is NOT your own, will result in an unsuitable assessment and notification of fraudulent activity to DIBP.
Please refer to the Key areas of Knowledge documentation to help you with applying for an RPL.
Sufficient detail must be provided to demonstrate the depth and breadth of your ICT knowledge gained during your ICT employment.

@baknir maraming ECE dito na nag IT and I think related naman siya sa NO mo. Tsaka, if you will stay with your current company eh ok lang na magsubmit ka kahit ngayon pa lang .
All the best, sana yong pinaka maganda ang result kapag nagpa-assess ka.

@mmm_85 In my opinion ok lang yun, as long as similar yung duties and responsibilities mo for BA role. like for my case, my assessment was Analyst/Programmer although my positions held were programmer, software engineer and my current which is research and development Manager. because they are basing on your duties and responsibilities
Regarding yung RPL , required yang route na yan kasi if yung course mo is Non-IT you can refer to @J_Oz post above.

Good Day po! Newbie here pero I have been reading some posts here for some time. I have a question hope someone can help me.
I got my ACS results and gusto ko po sana malaman if tama ung pagkakaintindi ko sa result letter ko in terms of applying for points.
Your qualification has been assessed as follows: Your Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering from University A completed March 2006 has been assessed as comparable to an AQF Bachelor Degree with a major in computing. The following employment after August 2008 is considered to equate to work at an appropriately skilled level and relevant to 261313 (Software Engineer) of the ANZSCO Code.
Dates: 08/06 - 07/13 (6yrs 11mths) Position: Software Engineer A Employer: Company A Country: PHILIPPINES Dates: 07/13 - 02/14 (0yrs 7mths) Position: Software Engineer B Employer: Company B Country: PHILIPPINES
The following employment has been assessed as not suitable.
Dates: 02/14 - 10/14 (0yrs 0mths) Position: Application Support Analyst 1 - Not Closely Related to the Nominated ANZSCO Employer: Company C Country: PHILIPPINES
Points to Apply: Education Qualification is Bachelor Degree = 10 pts ? Employment After August 2008 is 5 years (August 2008 to February 2014) = 10 pts ?
Thanks po and God Bless!

Meron na po ba dito or may kakilala na nagsubmit ng RPL and naging suitable ang result ng Skills Assessment for Business/Systems Analyst? Or any nominated occupation? Any tips/advice you can share?

Hello.. pwede magtanong ano magiging outcome ng ACS assesment if the following is submmitted. The suggested plan is to nominate Software engineer, pero macoconsider kaya ng ACS yung most recent job? ALso magkakaproblem kaya sa DIBP? Thanks in advanced, sana may makashare ng same experience.

In my years sa IT, I mostly do application support roles though in between, i have some development work which requires me to do coding, design, test and deploy fixes to the apps that I am supporting. There were cases also that I do enhancement work for those apps which required me to do the stuffs na nakalagay dun sa description ng Software Engineer. If mappresent nyo po yan sa documents nyo, i think maassess naman po yan just like in my case. Ung current job ko nga doesn't require me to do coding kaya nassess sya as not suitable though I am just 7 mos to my work and will get my points on my first previous jobs. Pero take note that ACS will still have the final say with regards to your assessment.

But since roles are more into analyst/Programmer, i used it as my nomination and i have no problem with my assessment till i received my grant

@b1g_d0m3 That is perfect. So ACS still processing time is still under a month which used to be 3 months before.
@raiden14 I think if you will highlight "software engineer" specific tasks (found in https://www.acs.org.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0018/7641/ANZSCO-Descriptions.pdf) written in your job reference document (or detailed COE with job description) and just do not state irrelevant tasks, then you can get ACS to focus on what is needed to be a software engineer. Did you write your own job reference doc and got it signed with your manager? If yes, then you can do it again if possible.

di ba nila titingnan yung past ko as in. kasi support roles ginawa ko from 2003 to 2010 eh. Then nagswitch lang ng 2010- until currently. Baka kasi mas makita nila yung mas maraming function ko. And yes whizler , I provide my own roles and responsibilities sa COE they dont have a defined role for my position in black and white eh.

If i wont include them, then kukulangin ako ng points for 189. Short with 5 pts. Magiging 5 pts lang ako from work experience since 4 yrs lang ang meron ako as software engineer.
Hello! regarding the certification of ACS requirements, acceptable po ba kung University registrar ang mag stamp and certify ng Diploma and Transcript of Records?
Ok lang din po ba na yung wording ng certification stamp is "Certified Copy", and not "Certified True Copy of the Original", as required by ACS?
Thank you!

@fatcharlie in my case, ang labo ng dryseal saken.. halos di kita. Pero hindi naman nagkaproblem. yung dryseal kasi sa UST, literal na embossed seal na may small pirma lang ng registrar.
embossed dry seal din yung sa akin, though walang signature and totally hindi makita sa scanned version. Anyway try ko nalang to submit it and wait and see kung papaulit ba ng ACS salamat sa reply!

This June 2015 mag-expired na ang ACS result ko. Kung magpapaassess ba ulit ako, kailangan ko pa bang magpaCTC ulit? Npansin ko kasi sa stamp ng Notary Public may date. Ano ba yun validity pagkakaCTC ng docs mo?

hi @grant512 for RPL, just fyi may deduction na at least 6 years experience so I dont think you will be able to claim points for experience if 7 years na wife mo as BA.
if pasok pa rin naman kayo sa total points, ipa-vetassess nyo naman yung qualification nya para may points sa education since hindi maaassess ng ACS yung accounting. pero check nyo rin yung school nya sa Country education profile kung section 1 kasi alam ko pag section 1 di na kailangan ng vetassess

Tama po ba ang process? thanks

The term “Relevant work experience” means work experience which is closely related to the nominated
occupation (ANZSCO) and performed at a professional ICT level.

like for my case, my assessment was Analyst/Programmer although my positions held were programmer, software engineer and my current which is research and development Manager. because they are basing on your duties and responsibilities
Regarding yung RPL , required yang route na yan kasi if yung course mo is Non-IT

I got my ACS results and gusto ko po sana malaman if tama ung pagkakaintindi ko sa result letter ko in terms of applying for points.
Your qualification has been assessed as follows:
Your Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering from University A completed March
2006 has been assessed as comparable to an AQF Bachelor Degree with a major in computing.
The following employment after August 2008 is considered to equate to work at an appropriately
skilled level and relevant to 261313 (Software Engineer) of the ANZSCO Code.
Dates: 08/06 - 07/13 (6yrs 11mths)
Position: Software Engineer A
Employer: Company A
Country: PHILIPPINES
Dates: 07/13 - 02/14 (0yrs 7mths)
Position: Software Engineer B

Country: PHILIPPINES
The following employment has been assessed as not suitable.
Dates: 02/14 - 10/14 (0yrs 0mths)
Position: Application Support Analyst 1 - Not Closely Related to the Nominated ANZSCO
Employer: Company C
Country: PHILIPPINES
Points to Apply:
Education Qualification is Bachelor Degree = 10 pts ?
Employment After August 2008 is 5 years (August 2008 to February 2014) = 10 pts ?
Thanks po and God Bless!

Thanks for the help! Since non-IT ang course ko, mukhang need ko nga magsubmit ng RPL (Recognition of Prior Learning) for BA/SA nominated occupation.
Meron na po ba dito or may kakilala na nagsubmit ng RPL and naging suitable ang result ng Skills Assessment for Business/Systems Analyst? Or any nominated occupation? Any tips/advice you can share?

In my years sa IT, I mostly do application support roles though in between, i have some development work which requires me to do coding, design, test and deploy fixes to the apps that I am supporting. There were cases also that I do enhancement work for those apps which required me to do the stuffs na nakalagay dun sa description ng Software Engineer. If mappresent nyo po yan sa documents nyo, i think maassess naman po yan just like in my case. Ung current job ko nga doesn't require me to do coding kaya nassess sya as not suitable though I am just 7 mos to my work and will get my points on my first previous jobs. Pero take note that ACS will still have the final say with regards to your assessment.

@raiden14 I think if you will highlight "software engineer" specific tasks (found in https://www.acs.org.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0018/7641/ANZSCO-Descriptions.pdf) written in your job reference document (or detailed COE with job description) and just do not state irrelevant tasks, then you can get ACS to focus on what is needed to be a software engineer. Did you write your own job reference doc and got it signed with your manager? If yes, then you can do it again if possible.

Ok lang din po ba na yung wording ng certification stamp is "Certified Copy", and not "Certified True Copy of the Original", as required by ACS?

so I dont think you will be able to claim points for experience if 7 years na wife mo as BA.
if pasok pa rin naman kayo sa total points, ipa-vetassess nyo naman yung qualification
nya para may points sa education since hindi maaassess ng ACS yung accounting.
pero check nyo rin yung school nya sa Country education profile kung section 1
kasi alam ko pag section 1 di na kailangan ng vetassess
