We did not know what to do so after many months of searching we got this companys name and contacted them they are call australian construction services ( Acts) for short what they do is they come out and assess you on site and you have to gather all docs showing you have 4 plus years in the same trade now it does cost £3500 sterling but at the end if you are sucessful you get your australian qualification which in turn you can apply through path way E. I will let you know how we get on with TRA but give the guys a shout they are really lovely and they will give you the low down. the web site is trade train google that name and it will come up let me know how you get on.
