Just to clarify things, ACS or any other assessing authorities do not assess qualification level, that’s beyond their jurisdiction as this has to do with the department of education and training. All assessing authorities will only make reference to the CEP document. So do not get confused on skills assessment’s main purpose - it’s to assess your skills and not your qualification level.
In reference to my response previously to @jrmdcdc, it’s worth a try for reassessment since the assessment outcome is already expired. I don’t see any reason why ACS won’t recognise a bachelor qualification from a section 1 institution because they have to follow what CEP says. If they don’t then it’s worth questioning it. They do not have a say on this part of the assessment.

I definitely would double check that with the skills assessment authority rather contesting it. It needs to be clarified since at the end of the day, as also indicated on the outcome letter, the decision is an opinion only and DHA still has a final say on it.

Hello po, just started exploring here and also dreaming to move to AU.
I work in IT with 4 yrs of experience and a graduate from UST BS-IT. Is it worth trying to go immediately for ACS skills assessment or should I wait for now and build my work experience further?
Thanks!

Hi All, I just received my assessment result from ACS got positive outcome. However, medyo naguguluhan lang po ako dito:
The following employment after 29 July 2016 is considered to equate to work at an appropriately skilled
level and relevant to ANZSCO Code 263111 (Computer Network and Systems Engineer).
Dates: 07/12 - 07/20 - 8 year(s) 0 month(s)
Position: Engineer Specialist - Client Service Assurance
Can someone pls enlighten mo pano po ung count ng employment yrs ko based dyan sa sinabi nila?
I understand 4 years din ang binawas nila sa employment ko

Hello po. Bale ang 'Skill Level Requirement Met date' mo is July 29, 2016. From July 27, 2016 - up to present (if currently working na same company), ito po ang 'Skilled employment' or yung years na pwede magclaim po ng points. Matanong ko po sana, gaano po katagal yung assessment inabot? Kelan ka po nagpasa? Thanks!

"There was a full update of the CEP listing for the Philippines on 14 June 2019.
As part of that update Bachelor degrees from HES 2 institutions are no longer assessed as comparable to AQF Bachelor degrees if the grade was high enough (the old scheme).
They are now all assessed as Associate Degrees unless the applicant can provide evidence of passing the Professional Regulation Commission’s Licensure Examinations in the relevant professional field or Bar Examination."
ito yung reply saken before nung assessor ko nun tinanong ko why frm bachelors (2017) naging assoc (apr-2020) ako. hope it helps

Hello po, magtatanong po sana for clarification. Ms @RheaMARN1171933 , Tanong narin po ako inputs Kung tama po ang intindi ko.
Nagpaassess po kasi si husband (dependent) sa ACS RPL route para makapagclaim ako ng points as the main applicant. Suitable po ang result pero may mga questions po ako.
1. Dun sa result letter po, wala yung section 2 - if suitable dun sa ICT qualification. Kailangan po ba may suitable ICT qualification para maging valid? I’m guessing po wala siya nun kasi hindi Ict course nya? Yung sakin po kasi na results letter meron pero hindi RPL route at ICT course po ako.
Maraming salamat po!

Hi Guys,
This is my first post here in this forum. Ask ko lang kung pede bang mgpaassess muna then ung PTE exam medyo matagal pa bago ko mgtake. I'm a Network Engineer with certification. Tama ba na 263111 ung ANZSCO na need ko isubmit? Dko alam kung pano mgsimula. haha
Joined: Mar 10, 2016
Most likely the decision to deduct 4 years is due to their findings that your studies is not closely related to your nominated occupation
Joined: Mar 10, 2016
Of course. You won’t need english until you lodge your EOI anyway. Concentrate on your skills assessment for now.

Baka po may makahelp sa tanong ko. Diko kasi sure if the assessment result na suitable is enough to claim partner points for positive skills assessment, kahit wala yung ICT Bachelors Degree assessment (AQF equivalent). May hunch is oo since di naman nagcleclaim ng education points for partner? Pahelp po. Thank you!
