Engineers Australia Skills Assessment

kimpossible · September 2020

Good day! Anyone here who has just recently submitted their application? Iniisip ko po kasi kung kukunin ko yung fast track nila or no need na. Kasi ang turnaround time pag regular daw is 9 weeks, ang di ko lang sure e kung totoong 9 weeks lang ba or mas matagal pa kaya?

Thanks in advance!

Heloooo po. Ask lang sana ako question kung ano ibig sabihin nito:

"A bachelor education from another educational institution that is of recognized standard."

Is it Bachelor's Degree + PRC+ Positive Assessment (ng EA for example)?

Thank u.

Nominated Occupation --- Same Occupation or Related sa Tinapos mo (Diploma) + PRC (PRC Card and PRC Certificate) + Section 1/Section 2 School (Transcipt, Diploma) = Positive Assessment ng EA = 15 points sa EOI/DHA

It means a qualification from a section 1 institution or section 2 or 3 + PRC

Positive skills assessment has nothing to do with it

You can start by reading the MSA Booklet po. You will be more familiar with the format and what you need to write for every part po.

Kapag po ba walang license, section 2 yung school, Mech Engg yung tinapos pero sa production engr magpapa assess, may chance makakuha ng positive outcome? Yung work exp po nya sa UAE. Salamat po.

Yes, ang isusulat lang ay yung Highest Relevant Qualification - yun yung magsasatisfy na 15 points if AQF Level is Bachelor Degree

chelziemae · September 2020

Good evening po.
Ask lang po ako if meron po kayong sample CDR for Ece. Transport Network Engineer po ako (planning and design, configuration and project management) po hawak ko ngayon. Thank you po

jun_als89 · September 2020

Hello po sa lahat!
Registered ECE po ako sa pinas but in shipbuilding experience specifically in Painting department designated as Field Engineer (malayong-malayo sa profession). I plan to apply for Industrial or Production Engineer in EA (since it has the closest in description to my experience). Tama po ba ginagawa ko na ibase ang CDR writing and Summary Statement sa Industrial Engineer or Production Engineer and not as an ECE?
Thanks in advance!

datini · September 2020

Good day po sa lahat. Ask ko lang po kng engineers australia lang ba ang assessing body for engineers? Ako po kasi ang primary applicant, AuRN po ako. Need ko lang ung skills assessment ng husband ko, who is a civil engineer sa pinas, for additional 5 points. Thank you po sa sasagot.

Francisco0789 · September 2020

Anybody who applied for TSS 482 here? Skills assessment from EA is not mandatory for TSS 482 but do I need any other license po ba to apply for this visa? or PRC lang po ba? Any other licensing authority that I need to apply for this visa? Salamat po!

DerylC · September 2020

Hello po, ask lang po how long po bago mareceive ung hard copy ng certificate from EA after ng positive skills assessment? Thank you!

Christian_Ereno · September 2020

Hello po. Sa mga Transmission Planning Electrical Engineers na nakapagsubmit na po ng CDR, pwede po ba akong makahingi ng copy ng CDR niyo for my reference. Salamat po.

AgEn2016 · September 2020

Hi there,
May pwede po kaya makasagot sa tanong ko po.

So I'm an Agricultural Engineer (ANZSCO 233912)
Description
Performs and supervises engineering work related to the use and development of agricultural land, buildings, machines and equipment. Registration or licensing may be required.
If I can provide job description that can relate into here then can I file for an EA assessment as an Engineering Technologist/ Agricultural Engineer? (Because of total Education in years = 15 years)

Is that how it works po? Can we specify the type of engineering profession we are specialized in the EA Assessment?

Also, I read somewhere that some engineering professions have quota or have reached ceiling applications, is that right?

I visited the DHA Log for and saw that there are <5 granted visas for Agricultural Engineers, does that mean well? Does it mean that I have less competition and can go through with low points? As of now I have 80 points on the Assessment (I used ANZSCO immigration tool) here: https://www.acacia-au.com/skilled-migration-points-test.php (I will only have 80 points though if I can score 8.0 in my IELTS exam, which I haven taken yet).

TIA.

Hi all, tanong ko lang. Wala po ba chance makahanap or ma hire ka ng companies pag wala kang EA assessment at lalo na nasa outside ka ng Australia? Or meron bang mga engineers na nagwowork doon kahit di dumaan sa EA assesment tho di namn sila mga PRC just purely work visa lang?

nrekram · September 2020

What I mean above is PR (permanent residency)

Ako kapatid, pumunta ako ng Melbourne para mag bakasyon ng isang linggo noong 2018 at di na ako umuwi. Nag studyante ako, nakahanap ako ng employer after 5 months dito, ngayon processing na kami ng work visa. Wala akong EA. Mahirap mag hanap kung wala kacdito, mas okay onshore. Swerte2 lang talaga.

AgEn2016 · September 2020

Hi guy, anybody got a CDR sample? Even out dated. Just want to see how it was constructed by you guys. Thank you.

imo, yung EA skills assessment na pinaguusapan dito sa thread is for visa/migration purposes and is different from getting an accreditation from EA to be able to practice your engineering profession sa AU.

In relation to jobs, generally with EA accreditation or none, kapag off-shore ka mahirap maka hanap ng work. kahit yung mga PR na hirap minsan kahit on-shore eh. Kahit na subukan mo rumekta sa mga companies hindi sila basta basta maghhire off-shore.

I remember way back 2012 nung nagaaply ako ng work abroad through agencies, minsan may susulpot na hiring para sa AU. Pero bihira mangyari to. Sobrang swerte kapag isa ka sa napili.

That’s very true. Same experience my husband had when we were planning to go back to Sydney from the UK (plans didn’t push through as we’re still in the UK hehe). Given his background - degree and post grad from Germany, years of work experience in Australia, Germany and the UK, he had interviews via Skype but they still prefer to finalise things once he’s back in Australia, to think he’s already got local experience na. Even recruiters say the same. Much easier when you’re there na.

Re EA accreditation I believe some states have recently required this for migrants.

So advisable po ba magstudent visa then sa Au na lang maghanap ng employer? Thanks po.

Depende po yan sa mga options mo, wala po kasi akong plano mag stay dito dati magbabakasyon lang talaga sana ako pero nagustuhan ko dito kaya di na ako umuwi at ang option ko lang ay ang mag student para makapag stay. Check mo na lang po kung anong available options para sayo.

Hello! Medyo nalilito lang ako at kailangan ko po ng inyong tulong. Sa mga nabasa ko dito, practical ang Standard Competency Demonstration Report Assessment dahil mas mura. Pero tama ba ang interpretation ko na aside from the cost, they differ in requirements such that the only requirement in the Standard is "Reference letter or certificate of employment from the employer (on official company letterhead, stating your title/position, commencement and termination dates of employment, signed and dated by the author)" whereas in RSEA, that and id need secondary documents stated in the MSA booklet? Sorry kung medyo stupid ang question ko. Nahihirapan kasi ako sa secondary documents eh. Hirap maghanap. Lalo na ung sa Pinas pa.
