Many of us are approaching 2022 with a renewed sense of optimism as international borders reopen. Australians look forward to welcoming international students and to seeing skilled migrants arrive to fill skill shortages across many industries.

December 2021 – The occupation of management consultant is one of the most popular professional occupations that we assess. Management consultants are in demand in Australia, but this is a specialised role, and it is important that applicants understand all the criteria that apply.

November 2021: Our Skills Assessment Experts have answered some common questions we receive via webinars, social media and emails to assist our clients and migration agents/lawyers.
