HOW LONG does a Skill Assessment take?
Most assessments should normally be completed within six weeks. In a minority of cases, the timeframe may be longer than this. Currently qualifications which are not covered by the assessment guidelines in the Country Education Profiles published by the National Office of Overseas Skills Recognition (NOOSR), and qualifications from Pakistan and the People’s Republic of China, may take longer to complete. Applicants who have qualifications from Chinese or Pakistani institutions are required to arrange for their qualification documents to be sent direct from their institution to VETASSESS in a sealed envelope. Applicants should apply to VETASSESS first and obtain a file number before arranging this.
