VETASSESS
VETASSESS Skill Assessment Services
A VETASSESS application is not just about uploading documents. It is about proving that your qualification level, field of study, and employment history match the requirements of your nominated occupation clearly and convincingly.
Overview
What is a VETASSESS Skills Assessment?
For professional occupations, VETASSESS assesses whether your qualifications compare to the required Australian Qualifications Framework level and whether your employment is both relevant and performed at the appropriate skill level for the nominated occupation.
A positive result generally requires a suitable assessment of both qualifications and employment. Your application must show that your education and employment history match the occupation in the way VETASSESS expects.
VETASSESS places occupations into different groups and pathways, and the qualification and employment requirements vary by occupation. A generic one-size-fits-all approach is risky — the strongest applications are built around the exact rules for the nominated occupation.

Our Approach
How we build stronger submissions
The strongest VETASSESS applications are built around five pillars.
Right occupation choice
Choosing the wrong occupation can weaken the whole application before evidence is even considered. We help verify your occupation-match strategy.
Qualification presented properly
VETASSESS assesses both the educational level and its relevance to the nominated occupation. We help present your qualification clearly.
Clear employment evidence
Only paid employment of at least 20 hours per week can be considered, and it must be relevant and performed at the required skill level.
Complete document set
Missing or incorrectly formatted evidence can delay or weaken the application. We review everything for completeness.
One consistent story
Your CV, work evidence, qualification evidence, occupation choice, and claimed duties should all support the same professional case.
Our Process
