duon pala sa pag notarized... if I have the original copies of diploma and transcript... pthoto copy ko na lang sya then authorized sa lawyer sa Phil. Embassy yung copy?

itchan · April 2012

^certified true copy ba ibig mong sabihin? Kahit saang notaryo publiko lang tsong, pero syempre, piliin mo na yung medyo mapagkakatiwalaan para pag tinawagan ng ACS (just in case) hindi sasabit...

Nagpa certified true copy ako sa Atrium Building sa me urdaneta... dun kasi nagpapanotaryo yung bangko ko pag kelangan (metrobank) so Im assuming medyo legit, singkwenta lang per CTC

Birhen_ng_Guadalupe · April 2012

Ayun, sana sa group A. Congrats pala. Ang bilis ng assessment mo.

Meron kaya dito na ECE na na ok sa ACS at group A?

ECE grad din ako, and I was assessed under group A pero 2011 pa yung assessment ko. Ngayon daw wala nang group letter na nakalagay

stolich18 · April 2012

^ yup true, wala nang group letter na nakalagay. Nilagay lang nila suitable and equivalent to an AQF degree...

the_BuGS · April 2012

ok...actually may certified true copy ako ng Diploma at trasncript ko na authorized pa ng CHED/School kaso way back 2002 pa dahil sa previous employment ko nuon..... then dala ko yung original copy ng diploma at transcript ko... so ang better advised eh photocopy ko na lang in coloured yung original transcript at diploma ko then pa authorized ko na lang sa notary public? or submit ko na lang yung lumang certified true copy na galing pa ng CHED ko then pa notarized ko pa?

hotshot · April 2012

@the_BuGS : pa-photocopy nyo na lang po yung original copies ng diploma and transcript niyo. it doesn't have to be colored. ang importante lang po e may nakatatak na certified true copy, at may signature and stamp ng notary public. oks na po yan.

Bryann · April 2012

Yeah ganun na nga ngayon. AQF equivalent na lang nakalagay either degree or diploma. Tapos if major in computing. 2-4 weeks ang average processing time.

the_BuGS · April 2012

dagdag pogi points ba sa ACS kung may mga training certificates ka like ITIL V3? Oracle? Cisco? Microsoft?

stolich18 · April 2012

@the_BuGS bka pero not sure. Although may certain MS certifications na ok with them. I-cite mo na lang lahat yan sa CV na ippasa mo sa knila.

hotshot · April 2012

@the_BuGS : not sure if it matters...but for my case, sinama ko yung SAP training certificates ko hoping na may dagdag pogi points. positive naman ang result pero di ko lang talaga sure kung kelangan yun.

the_BuGS · April 2012

ok sure... baka ITIL V3 na lang yung isama ko... kasi yung CISCO ko eh 2004 pa at yung Oracle ko eh 2006 pa... so more than five years na.... pero kung Microsoft Certified Professional ka.. pwede kaya isama yung certificate na yun? pati na rin yung copy ng ID?

another question is, pwede bang hindi ko na isama yung work experience ko sa Pilipinas dahil 10 years na rin ako sa current employer ko? problem is hindi detailed yung COE sa previous company sa pinas eh eh.... position lang at duration... then iba na yung mga HR Manager at Project Managers at nag shift pa ng office

....

ilagay ko pa rin ba sa CV?

hotshot · April 2012

@the_BuGS : tingin ko ok lang po na hindi na isama yun since may 10 years of work experience naman na kayo. Actually, sa DIAC nga, basta may 8 years of skilled employment ka undertaken in the last 10 years, makukuha nyo na po yung maximum 15 points for "Overseas skilled employment". Sa ACS naman, di ko kabisado kung ilang years ang kelangan but it depends on your qualifications (kung related sa occupation niyo or not). But with 10 years of IT experience, tingin ko safe na safe na yan. Opinion ko lang po ito.

the_BuGS · April 2012

thanks hotshot... baka kasi questionin eh... na wala ba akong experience sa Pinas at straight abroad na... tapos magkakaroon ng gap sa graduate year ko sa work ko dito.. baka isipin bum ako ng 2 to 3 years lol

hotshot · April 2012

may nabasa po ako sa forum dito dati...not sure kung anung thread yun dahil medyo madami-dami na akong nabasa dito hehehe. meron po ata dati na naglagay din ng work experiences nila kahit no sufficient evidences (i.e. detailed employer references). Ang ginawa lang ng ACS e parang sinabi lang na for that particular work experience, hindi sya assessable dahil no sufficient documentation. Pero for the other work experiences, na-consider naman. So tingin ko, either way, ok lang po. Kayo na po magdecide kung ilalagay nyo or hinde. hehe

the_BuGS · April 2012

oo nga eh...kasi para namang hindi believable na nag start ako ng work eh sa abroad agad na no experience sa Philippines.

killerbee · April 2012

@the_Bugs - just to add what @hotshot said, ACS only considers your experience for the last 10 years so even if it is related to your nominated skill, it does not matter. goodluck po at Godbless

the_BuGS · April 2012

@killerbee and @hotshots salamat! ......... thanks! try ko muna pa add.. then bigay ang lumang COE.. just only to show na continous work... then sa current employer ko eh papa-detailed ko na... hehehe... so hope yun lang i-assess ng ACS...

Metaform · April 2012

@the_BuGS Do not waste your time chasing your previous company for a COE. More than enough na yang 10 years sa current company mo. Tsaka kahit hindi mo na isama yung certs mo acceptable na sa ACS yun. In my case, kinailangan kong i-present yung MCITP ko kasi required ako ng 6 years. Pero kahit 5 years worth of job experience yung pinresent ko na-approve naman (perhaps because of the certificates), thank goodness!

Kung marami kang naging task, my advice is i-pattern mo yung CV and COE mo as System Analyst para pwede kang mag-lodge ng 175. And the best time to apply is now.

the_BuGS · April 2012

thanks @metaform..... since yung diploma ko eh andito pa notarized ko na lang sa Phil. Embassy... problem ko ngayon it will take time sa pag fill up ng PASA,.... dahil kahit papaano dami kong na developed na In-House legacy software sa opisina na i-ba-based ko as project... sa form kasi nila 2 lang eh.... sa tenure ko ngayon eh marami rami na rin akong nagawa kahit mga 3 to 4 months development lang...

the_BuGS · April 2012

question again, duon sa under section 3 ng PASA 2 recognition prior to learning..

ano ibig sabihin ng "Please submit certified verifiable statements from your employers to support your claims. "

eto na ba yung COE na detailed o iba pa to? kasi nag-eexplain na ako dun sa TRs eh.

zoom · April 2012

Guys, may nag try na bang mag pa access ng ICT Business Analyst dyan? Pa share naman ng experience nyo. ty! Manager kasi ako sa isang IT Service Desk compant dito sa pinas, so plan ko mag pa access sa field na to.

zoom · April 2012

Nag apply na ko for assessment. Gumawa ako ng RPL for ICT Business Analyst. I just hope and pray na qualified ako. Wish me luck guys!

k_mavs · April 2012

@zoom Sir try nyo po i PM si @cinnamon20 parang ICT Ba din po yung pina assess nya. Good Luck po!

lelai_n_stitch · April 2012

hi guys! question naman po... para san po ba ung RPL? is it for those na non-IT/computer yung course pero may sufficient IT work experience? meron na po ba dito nakapagpaRPL for programmer analyst? thanks po!

zoom · April 2012

Correct po kayo. For non-IT course tapos IT work experience.

batobats · April 2012

question: nag-pa-assess na ko sa ACS last year, I already have my results. Pero bakit parang magkaiba yung mga nakikita ko na results.

ito yung nakalagay sa assessement results ko. tama ba na ito dapat mareceive ko?
