Project Management - not construction - help!
Hi there
Im not sure if anyone can help - but any advice would be good!
We are hoping to emmigrate to Australia by any means possible, I have looked into 176 and 475 visas but feel like im looping myself....
Our basics:
Me
Age: 29
Occupation: Programme Manager (SOL list Program/Project Manager appears to be best fit) - have over 8 years experience (actual) in this field: please note I am not a construction or building Project Manager (unfortunately!)
Relation who is an Australian Citizen - Step-Aunt, would be willing to sponsor (based in Adelaide, S.A)
English: Fluent, we are UK passport holders
Qualifications: None at present
My husband -
Age: 34
Occupation: currently a final year student completing a Computing Web Development BSC degree (web design, web development, programming)
English: Fluent, we are UK passport holders
We are MORE than happy re locate ANYWHERE in Australia but im finding it hard albeit reading all threads and Immi.Gov data re REAL options.
I have seen some threads re qualifications that are suitable via VETASSESS for Project/Program admin as needs to be equiv of AQF Diploma but does anyone know of any real examples that VETASSESS have taken for this in particular or what they DO accept???

Re: Project Management - not construction - help!
I am a bit confused, you said you don't have any qualifications, so why do you want to know what qualifications vetasses will accept? It is a moot point isn't it? Sometimes it is possible to pass skills assessment based on experience, if you don't have qualifications then surely you should focus on this?
I am assuming that vetasses is the correct skills assessing body for your particular occupation? Just thought I would check you checked as it does vary.

Hi there
according to everything I have read VETASSESS require qualifications not experience (which I have), if this is the case and hoping other out there may have had the same predicament I am more than willing to study but cant seem to get an answer re quickest / best and most appropriate courses.
If however anyone in same situation has had experience ONLY ok'd by VETASSESS would be VERY interested to hear.
thanks
