Skills Assessment for Carpenters

Carpenter Skills Assessment

(ANZSCO: 331212)

Carpenters migrating to Australia are required to complete a Carpentry Skills Assessment through Trades Recognition Australia (TRA).

Visa Go Australia is proud to work with two TRA Approved Registered Training Organisations (RTO’s), VETASSESS and Australian Construction Training Services (ACTS), who facilitate the technical interviews.

After successfully completing the Carpentry skills assessment you will receive your Australian Certificate 111 in Carpentry, which will enable you to continue with your application for a Skilled visa.

Visa Go Australia work with you to achieve a positive skills assessment and visa application. A professional case processor will assist you at every stage of the application, ensuring you are fully informed and supported throughout the process.

We also provide a SKILLS ASSESSMENT ONLY package.

The process is broken up into two stages.

Stage 1

Documentary Assessment for Carpenter – Fee $1,280.00

Visa Go Australia will work with you to prepare the necessary documentation for lodgement with the RTO, who will review your training and employment evidence to ensure that you have either:

5 years employment experience as a Carpenter with no formal training OR
3 years employment experience as a Carpenter with relevant formal training

You will need to provide your qualification certificates as proof of formal training, and your employment evidence must include at least 12 months in the last 3 years. Evidence may include documents such as wage slips, bank statements, employment references and tax returns. Your Visa Go Australia Case Processor will advise you about what exactly is required and prepare these in readiness for assessment.

Stage 2

Technical Skype Interview for Carpenter – Fee $2,000.00

This involves a technical interview with a VETASSESS or ACTS Assessor via Skype. The technical interview takes approximately 2 hours, with the Assessor asking you a range of questions about the skills and knowledge necessary to work in your trade in Australia. These questions are based on the units listed on the trade Fact Sheet, which Visa Go Australia provides you with.

The technical interview will take place in either Edinburgh, London, Manchester or in your home during COVID-19, and following a successful assessment the RTO will issue you with:
