Is it necessary to get experience assessment from Engineers Australia or can I apply directly to immigration based on only CDR assessment?

Answer:

No, it is not mandatory to get an experience assessment done from EA to get your visa approved. There are many ways through which one can do the same.

Engineers Australia is a pre-eminent firm, which helps engineers to get skill migration visa for Australia. Their normal procedure is that they will ask you to write your own CDR through which they will be able to access your work profile and find out what kind of person you are at your work. Through a CDR they can successfully judge you as an employee, engineer and eligible resident too.

All you need to do to get a skill migration visa is a positive CDR. It will show all the information that the scrutiny authority need about you. Although getting an experience assessment done from EA will be the icing on the cake and you will get a full assurance of your visa approval.

• Getting a perfect CDR –

They are Continuous Professional Development (CPD), three career episodes and summary statement. The three career episodes will show them your whole career history.
