    I studied IT back in 2015. Career wise, yes it is rewarding but the journey to PR is quite expensive unless IT ka na talaga before.

    I have to do the professional year program to get a positive assessment from ACS which costs 12k aud plus yung seminars for CPD points

    If gusto mo maging PR through SV, I would suggest take healthcare courses like nursing. Mataas demand dito talaga, not sure if it's a rewarding career but would probably say it's fulfilling as you help people in the community. (assumption ko lang)

    Mark 11:24 Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.

    Hi, i have plan to enroll IT as well in Australia. I'm eyeing Queensford College pero masyado mahal yung tuition sa school compara sa New Era pero pare-pareho naman sila ng curriculum na inooffer. I'm on the process of preparing my requirements for next year intake. Is there a way that I can contact you privately po for more questions? May agency po ako nagaasikaso ng papers ko now.

    @lunarcat hindi ako IT sa Pinas kaya gapang na gapang ako. And yes, gaya ng sinabi ni @frisch24 , positive mindset talaga ang need.

    Naka graduate visa kami ngayon at na-invite na rin kami ni @frisch24 for permanent residency, inaantay na ang Direct Grant!

    @superluckyclover @frisch24 hi po. Magtatanong lang sana. I'm planning to take diploma of web development and advanced diploma of computer system technology. After completing both courses po ba eligible po ba yan for a graduate visa? Kay nabasa ko po sa ACS criteria may naka indicate na suitability is bachelor or higher ang natapos mo. May offer na ako sa intech institute of tech pero nag dadalawang isip ako baka masayang kasi di din makakuha ng graduate visa. Sana po ma replayan nyo ako.

    Di ako familiar sa mga diploma sorry. Pero ang alam ko ito ang mga importanteng details sa 485 visa
    Cricos registered ang institution
    then may minimum calendar weeks of class (2 years)

    Better to read read read research sa DHA website. Andun lahat ng information

    @vbarry1990 Masters kasi tinapos namin ni @superluckyclover kaya 2 years yung 485 namin. May friends din ako na bachelors yung tinapos and 2 years din yung 485. Post Study work visa yung 485 namin.

    Pero chineck ko yung website ni immi, 2 pla yung 485. Graduate work stream (18 months stay) or Post Study work stream (2-4years stay). Mejo vague lang yung requirements na nakalagay.=/ eto yung link for reference: https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/visas/getting-a-visa/visa-listing/temporary-graduate-485

    May agent ka ba? Mas maeexplain nila better yung difference. And kung qualified ka dun sa 2 stream ng 485.

    @frisch24 @superluckyclover thanks for the inputs po. Yes i've read the requirements from DHA site, yung Graduate Workstream ito yung requirements.

    so you 3rd bullet po "Be assessed as having skills suitable for an occupation on the skilled occupation list" lang worries ko in taking Diploma and Advanced diploma na 2 years. Kasi sa ACS criteria ng assessment ito yung nakalagay for graduate visa.

    So tama po ba pagkaka intindi ko na di padin makakakuha ng suitable assessment from ACS kasi diploma lang at advanced diploma ang natapos?

    I'm doing the process all by myself lang kasi so i'm relying in personal experiences. May naka usap kasi isang agent pero di din sila gaano familiar sa process ng skills assessment ng ACS.

    Sorry no time to back read. Are we talking about AQF diploma: advanced diploma? I’m not sure what the question is

    @frisch24 thanks po.

    @RheaMARN1171933 Hi, I'm planning to study Diploma and Advance Diploma of Website Development at Brisbane, after the course po (2 yrs total), Does ACS will assess graduates of Diploma and Advance Diploma and get a suitable assessment for temporary graduate visa (yung 18 months). Naka indicate kasi sa criteria ng ACS na bachelor or higher kasi.

    Diploma and advanced diploma are both not even higher than a bachelor degree. I hope that answers your question as per the ACS guideline.
