Re: teachers and visa questions!
Going to a regional area with a job offer, staying 2 years you are able to apply for PR ( this is the information I received from an agent ) - that's why it better to seek expert advice. With the 457 it depends on the person as well and requirements, as far as I know with 457 you need to provide different evidences depending on the job ( English, experience, qualification, degrees... )
No, you cannot go to a regional area for two years and get PR!
You might be vaguely alluding to the 489 regional visa, which requires two years in a regional area before progressing to PR. However there are pretty tough criteria to be met in the first place before the 489 visa can be obtained: job on CSOL or SOL, points test, skills assessment, state sponsor. A two year diploma will certainly not be enough to get a 489 visa.

None of this relies on Australian study or a job offer!
Please consider the advice you give, and I would advise against any further plugs for a specific group.

Re: teachers and visa questions!
I think you are thinking of RSMS which is a skilled temporary visa. To apply for this visa, you would need to pass the skills assessment in an occupation on the CSOL, find a state to sponsor you and meet the points criteria. With this visa, if you live in a regional area for 2 years, and work full time for at least 12 months, you would be eligible to apply for a PR visa.

thanks, I agree with you, I didn't mean you need to study, perhaps I didn't put it right, clearly you know what you are talking about so I leave it to you as you are more experienced - have a great day, cheers

Re: teachers and visa questions!
Secondary teachers are on the SOL though so you only need sponsorship if you cannot reach the points total. If you do go for sponsorship, they may ask for a number of years experience. You may also need experience to pass the skills assessment.

Re: teachers and visa questions!
not sure off the top of my head - google can help. Try searching state sponsorship with each state - NSW, VIC, TAS, SA, WA, NT, QLD and ACT.

Re: teachers and visa questions!
It is not difficult - prove you have the skills required, prove that you have a good standard of English and have the experience and qualifications to back this up.
You're first worry should be 'do I have the skills required?' If you cannot pass a skills assessment, the rest is irrelevant.

I'm a spark - I have 9's in the academic IELTS - I wouldn't worry about it as long as you have a good standard of literacy.
