Subject: Onshore overseas : 2 years or 18 months study? Posted on: Sat, 25 Mar 2006 23:37:07 +0000


Hello everyone,

Which one is correct, 2 years study or 18 months?
It seems there is inconsistency between ACS assesment guideline and
information in the immigration website regarding this duration of study.

Thank you.

Andrew

meet the 2 years study in Australia requirement, that is:

* have completed an Australian qualification, which is a degree,
diploma or trade qualification, while in Australia as a result of
at least two years full-time study in a course on the
Commonwealth Register of Institutions and Courses for Overseas
Students (CRICOS)


----------------------------------------------------------
2.1.4 As a guide, to meet the criteria a Graduate Diploma or Masters
degree, which is undergraduate in
content and taken usually after a qualification other than an IT
degree or equivalent, must:
(a) Contain a minimum of three semesters*; and
(b) Contain a minimum of twelve units; and
(c) Contain two semesters* of full-time equivalent IT content; and
(d) Be underpinned by an IT or non-IT degree level qualification or an
AQF Advanced
Diploma or Diploma or equivalent; and
(e) Have at least one semester* of IT study at a demonstrably
advanced level.
* duration of study is expressed for full-time study. Where study is
completed at a rate less than
full-time, then scaling to the equivalent of full-time is applied.
