Ask ko lang po, kung ang school po ay nasa section 2 or 3, anu-ano pong tinitingnan ng EA para maging equivalent to AQF Bachelors Degree? Grades? Kung licensed? Number of years ng work experience? Thanks po!

Sorry but I am a bit lost. When getting the Aus equivalent of our Phil degree, is this for a specific Visa or any one should do this for job opportunities? Saan kaya in particular makakakuha nito? We will be based in Melbourne.
Salamat po!

iba kasi ang points kung equivalent to AU Bachelor degree ang Phil degree mo (15pts), may mga PH degrees na AU diploma level lang ang equivalency (10pts)..

1. skills assessment.. based sa CDR mo, kung mademonstrate mo na competent ka based sa job desc ng anzsco code..
2. educ qualification assessment - eto based sa sevral factors, like section ng school, units earned, grades, license (in our case wala nmn PRC license ang IE)... so depende sa mga factors na yan, pwede maging equivalent to AU degree (which means you can claim 15pts sa EOI).. or ma-assessed ka lang as equivalent to AU diploma (10pts)..
now yung work exp mo, will be part of the skills assessment (part 1), and of course your work exp for your EOI points...
