Hi,

This Gavin Raj,

Would like to know how ACS will consider my educational qualification for 189 Subclass visa.

I have around 8+ years of experience in IT as a consultant.
I have completed my education as below,

High School
Diploma in Computer Applications - 2 Years
Post Graduate Diploma in Computer Applications - 1 Year

does, my last three years of education(Diploma & Post Graduate Diploma), be considered as an equivalent to AQF by ACS for claiming 15 points for my education, please let me know.

Would like to know before I can go ahead and apply for ACS, as it can help me understand the points score fro my profile as shown below.

Age<30 = 30 points
Experience<8 = 10 points
Education = ? points
Toefl - 7Band = 10 points

Thanks,
Gavin Raj

Example 1 – Employment completed AFTER the qualification:
 You complete a relevant Bachelor degree with a major in ICT in Jan 2008 and you have 4 years of relevant
work experience from Jan 2008 until Jan 2012.
 2 years of work experience will be used to satisfy the suitability criteria and your Skill Level Requirement
Met Date will be Jan 2010.
 All suitable work experience completed AFTER Jan 2010 will be considered “Skilled Employment” and
eligible for the skilled migration points test.
 The 2 years of work experience used to satisfy the suitability criteria is NOT eligible for the skilled
migration points test but is assessed to meet the suitability criteria.

i have 6 year of experience after my graduation done on 2007. but ACS counted from 2009....
so will i get 5 points or 10 points??? what should i submit in EOI???

Since ACS deducted 2 years you can only claim points for remaining 4 years out of your total 6 years of experience.
Thus you will get 5 points and that's how you should state in EOI before submitting.

Saloni - the project reports are required for RPL application which is required when the applicant does not have relevant IT education.
Prima facie, you should not require to go through the RPL route as you have a BTech degree in CS.

Download ACS certification guidelines fron ACS website. There are rules with respect to ICT major/minor based on subjects offered in the degree, but it should be straight forward for you with your CS degree.

Hi All,
I have a question regarding skill assessment. During my tenure, i worked in USA (For 9 months) and Germany (5 Months). But those companies were reluctant to give a separate experience letters for my onsite experiences (9 +5 = 14) months. While doing skill assessment i didn't created a separate entry for my USA and Germany experiences. I just created one entry for the total tenure with the company. Will it be a problem.

Where should i mentioned my details of my experience outside India.

Regards,
Chandra

It should not matter as you get additional points only for Oz experience (if it is more than 1 year, or over 3 years). This is not the case with you. These 2 onsite stints are just "offshore" experience (like rest of your experience) and do not affect the EOI points.
