@Heprex congrats bro! bakit pala diploma lng binigay nung una? ano pala course mo?

Heprex · December 2016

@swirlycurly Thanks!

@FrankAbignale Thanks!

Actually, di ko din alam kung bakit diploma lang binigay nung una. BS ECE ako, I'm sure for 5 years full time study, more than 20% yung ICT units ng course ko. Kaya nag appeal ako.

yasarella · December 2016

@Heprex Btw, narefund mo ba yung binayad sa appeal mo? Wala kang pinakitang extra docs nun no, right? Simply nagreason ka lang na u believe u have more than 20% content?

Sid Lim · December 2016

btw matanong ka lang pala sa mga nakatanggap ng result from ACS. ano ba ang impact ng AQF Advance Diploma vs AQF Bachelor Degree sa visa application? or deduction lang ang pagkakaiba nito at wala nmn future impact incase magtuloy tuloy ang application going Oz? salamat sa mga sasagot at ng malinawan lang po ako.

@Heprex magandang tanong po.. anong mga reasons mo?

Heprex · December 2016

@Sid Lim , Ou, share ko diskarte ko pag nakalusot. Hehehe Salamat kaibigan.

@yasarella , based kase dun sa guidline:

A Bachelor degree must have:
• 33% ICT content for a 3 year course
• 25% ICT content for a 4 year course
• 20% ICT content for a 5 year course

Nabasa ko din dito for section 3 school: http://pinoyau.info/discussion/36/australian-computer-society-skills-application/p203

"Evidence of passing the Professional Regulation Commission’s Licensure Examinations in the relevant professional field"

Eto reason ng appeal ko. I was appealing to the result of my qualification as Advance Diploma, which I believed it should be Bachelor. I hold a degree of 5 years full time, with more than 200 units. I do also include my passing of PRC cert as ECE . etc etc

Heprex · December 2016

@Sid Lim , Pag advance diploma kase, 10 pts lang for qualifications, deduction of 5 years pa sa total exp. so halos wala ako nakuhang points sa Exp.

pag bachelor, 15pts sya, tapos normally, 2 years deduction, so meron din ako makukuhang exp pa sa EXP, which is 5pts for 3 years of EXP.

tingin ko wala naman impact pag nasa Oz ka na, pero syempre, mas mataas ang points, mas maganda. dun sa appeal ko, nag ka additional 10pts ako. mas malakas laban ko sa ITA.

@yasarella dun sa refund, wala pa ako narerecieved. ahahaha

@azn Central Philippine University is section 1. Since your course is comsci and your nominated occupation is software engineer, probably 2 years lang ang deduction sayo.

Depende na lang yan sa kung ano nakalagay sa COE. Dpat swak tlg sa software engineer. Goodluck!

@pumpupkiks sa stat dec mismo tatatak or pipirma yung attorney na magwiwitness sa pirma ng higher level colleage mo. AFAIK d na kelangan pa ng separate notarization un.

@yasarella pag section 3 usually 5 year deduction sya sa work experience. For education, since board passer ka, may chance na ma-assess as AQF Bachelor. Abangan natin yung result ni bro @Heprex.

@rich88, ACS Result ko Suitable, deduction of 2yrs work experience. Perfect yung assessment mo. Maraming salamat bro.

rich88 · December 2016

@azn congrats! good luck on the subsequent steps!

yasarella · December 2016

@Heprex Sipag magbasa ah, hindi q nadaanan page na un. hehe So sabi din dun nagrereset ung invites every July. Accurate pa ba to? Kita q nga dun sa website bilis mapuno ung occupational ceilings. Sana wag magtaas ng reqd points next yr as well as the visa fee.

yasarella · December 2016

@Heprex Ano yung additional 10 pts na grinant sayo ni ACS? What do u mean by ITA? Does it mean na kahit hindi pa idagdag yung sa PTE pts mo, i assume u already have 60pts, tama ba?

bluerocky · December 2016

Hello sa lahat sana meron makapagbigay sa aking ng info, ask ko lang pag mag papa assess ako sa ACS as BSCOE pero naging Planner ako wala bang magiging problema dun at may weight ba ang certification like PMP, ITIL, etc kapag mag papa assess ka ng documents mo.

Heprex · December 2016

@yasarella kase bachelor na ang assessment ko, since deduction is 2 years lang for my 6 years. meron akong makukuha na pts for exp, which is 5pts. unlike nung diploma lang, 10pts lang, at wala ako makukuha na points sa exp.

ITA = invitation to apply

eto sample if assessment ng ACS is diploma or degree.

Kung Diploma:
Age = 30
Qualification = 10
Exp = 0
English = 20 (need ko i-superior para umabot ng 60)

Nung naging Bachelor:
Age = 30
Qualification = 15
Exp = 5
English = 20 (Kung Ma-superior ko, total ko is 70pts, mas malakas chance sa ITA)

COE = computer engineering? Anong nominated occupation mo?

Microsoft at CISCO certifications lang ang may weight. Diploma ang assessment for Microsoft and Cisco certifications.

I have been reading some information on this thread and find this thread very helpful. Gusto ko lang po humingi ng advise regarding naman po sa situation ko. I am industrial engineering graduate but I already have 6.5 years of IT experience to date. My experience is somewhat related to ICT Business Analyst (261111) and/or Systems Analyst (261112). My questions are these:
1. From the link below:
https://more.acs.org.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0016/7324/Summary-of-Criteria-2014.pdf
Is this considered a Non-ICT Diploma or higher category which requires 6 years relevant work experience completed anytime in past work history plus a successful RPL application?
2. Will there be any deductions on my 6.5 years of IT experience?

Also with regards to points requirement, i have already assessed myself on following qualifications:
Age 25–32 years 30
English Ability Proficient 10
Superior (Dasal lang!!!) 20
Skilled Employment
at least three but less than five years (of the past 10 years) 5
at least five but less than eight years (of the past 10 years) 10
Qualifications
For this one, i have graduated from Mapua Institute of Technology (this is section 1 university category so maximum of 15 points is expected)
At least a bachelor degree from
an Australian educational institution
or other degree of a recognised standard 15

Anu po magiging varying factors ng pagiging IE ko?
Will this mean na hindi na ako qualified for 15pts under bachelor degree?
At paano mangyayari sa Skilled Employment ko in terms of points?

I am planning to get skillset 189 for this one.
All help and info and advises are welcome. I will be glad to read your feedback.
Disclaimer: Sorry for the very long post...

Question lang po:

Kanino dapat i-address ang reference letter? kasi yung previous employer ko hindi daw pwede "To who it may concern" dapat naka-addresss sa tao or sa organization. Pwede kaya "To Australian Computer Society"?

TIA
