Every person wishing to practice as a migration agent in Australia must have a valid Australian Legal Practicing Certificate or must have passed a special postgraduate course at university (the Graduate Certificate In Australian Migration Law And Practice). This ensures that every registered migration agent has the appropriate knowledge in the complicated and extensive Australian migration law and will therefore be able to offer services of the highest professional standard. Every migration agent needs to undertake Continuing Professional Development (CPD). This means that their level of knowledge of migration law is kept up-to-date, and it also means that Australian migration agents are amongst the best-educated immigration advisors worldwide!
