Question about UK degree in New Zealand?
Is a UK Masters of Social Work recognised as an equivalent to the New Zealand Graduate Diploma of Social Work for immigration purposes?
I know that they're both at the same level but I want to know if it's actually recognised by the immigrations people as an equivalent. |

Probably best to contact NZQA (the NZ Qualifications Agency) and find out.

You might want to checkout your qualification here:
http://www.immigration.govt.nz/opsmanual/i35171.htm to see what level it is. Then checkout what qualification you require for the job you are looking for. Which can be found here: http://www.immigration.govt.nz/migra...ls.htm?level=2 Then have a read of my second post here: http://britishexpats.com/forum/showthread.php?t=721811 especially the response from NZIS |

Re: Question about UK degree in New Zealand?
I have the bachelors degree and it was classed as an equivalent, i didn't need mine assessed either. One thing to keep in mind when applying for jobs thou is the registration over here. Originally it wasnt mandatory to be registered immediately, however we have just been told that CYF and Health are now requesting all staff are registered prior to taken up employment. GSCC reg isnt recognised here.
