Hi guys,
Gusto ko ulit ayusin yung CDR ko which I started 8 years ago na.
Pwede pa bang gamitin yung CDR where the work experiences acquired ay nung 2013-2019 pa?
Nagresigned na kasi ako nung 2021 sa previous employer at yun yung gusto kong gamitin for CDR and work expeience.

Hello po,
Meron po ba kayong guide kung paano gawin ang CDR?
Joined: Jul 13, 2022
Ang guide lang na ginamit ko dati is ung mula sa EA talaga of what they expect na laman ng CDR mo. Lalo na may summary ka na need mo rin sagutan and isubmit.

Ginamit kong guide sa pagawa ng CDR noon is yung mga Description ng Summary Statement na nasa MSA Booklet, page 38 (in my case is Engineering Technologist). Ito yung link ng MSA Booklet https://www.engineersaustralia.org.au/sites/default/files/MSA Booklet (March%202020).pdf

Hi @RheaMARN1171933 Ayun po ng yung Professional Engineer? Iniisip namin kung sa VETASSESS ba sa Engineering Australia magpapa assess.
Kung sa Engineering Australia kami magpapa assess, PTE ba muna o ppwede na magpa assess kahit walang PTE.
Thank you

Ang pagawa ng CDR is madali lang if hands on ka sa mga engineering projects na nagawa nyo sa company nyo kasi para itong step by step na narative ng mga activities ninyo how you accomplished a certain project. Of course dapat ma include mo rin sa CDR ang mga Engineering principles and theories na naapply nyo sa pagawa nito. You can follow the SUmmary statement manual na nasa MSA Booklet para sa interpretation nyo ng mga career episodes.

Claim points? Or you mean EA recognised it? Immigration will only consider the last 10 years. This is stipulated in the policy. If you also check the EOI, it’s only asks for occupation within the last 10 years

Yea, it’s just time consuming. I always tell my clients if they managed to obtain a degree, they are more than capable of writing a CDR. In the 10+ years we’re guiding clients, I’ve not had any client who failed this.

Thanks for starting this helpful discussion. Skills assessment with EA can definitely feel overwhelming at first, but reading the MSA booklet carefully really makes the process clearer. I also noticed that many engineers struggle with IELTS, and preparing well for it is just as important as completing the technical documents.
By the way, for those who are also interested in exploring useful tools and resources for their career and studies, you can check out. It can be handy for staying organized and accessing content easily while preparing for assessments.
