The engineers, who are interested in Australian migration and citizenship, need to consult the Australia New Zealand Standard Classification of Occupations (ANZSCO) codes to meet up their demands and requirements for job or work permit. For this purpose, the engineers can take detailed information from two Australian government websites:   Australian Department of Immigration and Citizenship ACACIA Immigration Australia Both these websites provide the detailed ANZSCO information required for skills and qualification assessment and skilled visa application for each occupation category.   The first website, Australian Department of Immigration and Citizenship, contains the eligibility requirements for each occupation on their Australian Skills Recognition Information (ASRI) page. Besides the occupation eligibility requirements, the assessing authority, skilled occupation points, skilled occupation list (SOL), and consolidated sponsored occupation list (CSOL) are also provided on this web page.   For further details about typical tasks and occupation codes for Australian migration, you can refer to ACACIA Immigration Australia. The ANZSCO occupation codes generally define all the requirements of basic engineering disciplines including electrical, mechanical, chemical, architecture, civil and others, while some industry type jobs like transport engineering, water engineering, power engineering and railway engineering are also discussed in the ANZSCO occupation codes.   If your occupation does not generally fall in the ANZSCO occupation classification, then you need to categorize your occupation based on your engineering skill. Like if someone is involved in rolling and managing the stock of the industry, then his occupation might fall under the mechanical engineering category. Similarly if someone has to deal with designing of tracks and pathways, then his occupation falls under the civil engineering category.   It is important to go through the ANZSCO occupation code description relevant to your job, so that you are able to select the right occupation category for your job. This approach will assist you in improving your skills assessment and migration visa application.   Below we briefly describe the ANZSCO codes and their descriptions for general engineering disciplines for reference: 233311 ELECTRICAL ENGINEER. ELECTRICAL ENGINEERS perform the designing, development, manufacturing, installation and fitting electrical devices, provide service maintenance of different electrical gadgets, improve electric machinery systems, energy recourses equipment’s and systems for the production, deployment, distribution, application and also supervise of electric power devices.   Areas of specializations include: • Design Electrical Engineer • Electrical Engineer of Railway Signaling • Electrical Engineer of Signaling and Communications 233411 ELECTRONICS ENGINEER ELECTRONICS ENGINEERS are involved in designing, developing, adaptation, installation, testing and maintenance of electronic components, equipment, and circuits used for computer communication setup & systems and other industrial and application for transport.   Area of specializations include: • Communications Engineer (Army) 233511 INDUSTRIAL ENGINEER INDUSTRIAL ENGINEERS are responsible for inspection and reviewing the usage of equipment’s, competence, materials, personnel, operational processes, recommending procedures to improve the performance of operations and activates in different industrial, commercial and production environments.   Area of specializations include: • Process Engineer (Industrial) 233512 MECHANICAL ENGINEER MECHANICAL ENGINEERS are involved in planning, designing, organization and reviewing the whole Mechanical system, operation, adjustment and maintenance of mechanical equipment and processes of plants.   Area of specializations includes: • Engineer of Air-conditioning • Engineering of Heating and Ventilation 233513 PRODUCTION OR PLANT ENGINEER PRODUCTION or PLANT ENGINEERS are involved in planning, construction, observe are of duplication, modification, continued performance, measure and analyze working programs samples, management and maintenance cost of efficiencies of different equipment and machine components in the industrial plants and manufacturing sites.   Area of specializations include: • Automation and Control Engineer 233211 CIVIL ENGINEER CIVIL ENGINEERS are responsible for planning, designing, desired construction of organization, operation to maintenance dams, bridges, water and gas supply resources, pipelines, sewerage systems and other civil engineering projects.   Area of specializations include: • Engineering officer of Airfield (Air Force) • Engineer in Hydraulics 233111 CHEMICAL ENGINEER CHEMICAL ENGINEERS are involved in designing of different chemical processes and control systems, avoid intermixing of chemicals, test and assess quality of fuel transfer, continuous monitoring of equipment’s for attaining maximum efficiency, diagnose defects in chemical or machinery, make best efforts to reduce pollution and implement methods which generates good results in plant unit.

The main purpose of the Skilled Migration Australia program is to draw the attention of the highly employable persons such as Engineers and motivate them to migrate to Australia. This is the most common form for the deserving persons for Australia immigration. The Skilled Immigration Australia services are provided by the registered migration agents having extensive years of experience. These agents ensure to make the application successful. A wide range of different specific points is tested before accepting the application. Selecting the right occupation and applying for Assessment for Australia immigration is critical this subsequently could affect the score point as well as eligibility for the state-sponsored options. Skilled Migration Program Australian Government makes use of this skilled migration program for targeting the highly skilled people who would take instant take part in contributing to the economy of Australia. Migration Assessment Australia eligibility is based on the immigration points. The assessment calculates whether the applicant is eligible for migrating to Australia under any of the Skilled Visa classes or not. The Skill level requirement would be based on the assessing body (such as EA, ACS etc.) result letter, and it would determine the assessment outcome. It is essential to provide skills assessment to the relevant assessing authority which would be used for Points Tested Skilled Migration.

Engineers, in continuation to our previous post, if you are now preparing your CDR for migration skills assessment with the Engineers Australia (EA), here are more tips on Career Episodes preparation. Important things to pay attention to in Career Episodes preparation When you are writing your Career Episodes there are technicalities you must pay attention too. The most important one is to write your Career Episodes using “I” language. This means that you describe the work you have personally carried out. You should not use “we” or “our” or reduce usage of these words to minimum. If you describe them work – give a short background of the team work and then describe in details part that was carried out personally by yourself using “I” language.   Also, try not to use passive tense, always use active tense when writing your Career Episodes. Example of passive tense: “The X work was carried out”. Example of active tense: “I have carried out the X work”.   Another important matter is to use the right paragraphs numbering: The guidance in regards to paragraphs numbering is given on page 19 of the EA booklet which you can download from EA website.   If you feel that you need help on writing your CDR or if you have your CDR ready and you need an expert to check your CDR for compliance with EA requirements, please contact us on info@writemycdr.com .
