The Skill Assessment is a critical step in the Australian migration process. It ensures that your qualifications, experience, and expertise meet the standards required for your nominated occupation. Without a positive skill assessment, most skilled migration visas — including employer sponsorship and innovation pathways — cannot be granted.
The Skill Assessment process is designed to evaluate the qualifications and work experience of professionals and tradespeople to ensure they meet Australian standards for their nominated occupation. A positive assessment confirms that an individual’s skills are recognized in Australia, strengthening their eligibility for skilled migration visas and increasing employment opportunities in their field
It is ideal for applicants in occupations listed on Australia’s Skilled Occupation Lists, covering sectors such as healthcare, engineering, IT, construction, and education.
Why Choose Skilled Assessment?
Australia continues to face skill shortages across key industries and actively seeks global talent to fill these gaps. If you have the qualifications and experience in a high‑demand occupation, a positive skilled assessment offers pathway to temporary and permanent residency.
It is a strong option for individuals who want to build a long‑term future in Australia while enjoying full work rights, study opportunities, and access to world‑class healthcare and education systems.
