The
Australian Government,
through the Department
of Immigration (DIMIA) regularly publishes and
updates a list of professions in demand in
Australia. These professions may gain you extra
points when applying for permanent residence. If
you study and graduate from a course (and the
duration of the course is greater than two
years), and if the course you graduate from is
on the professional list as in demand, it’s
possible to get the necessary points for
immigration. Simply finishing one of these
courses does not guarantee immediate immigration
success however; you will still need to attain
the remaining points listed to be successful. An
immigration agent, the Immigration Department or
Australian Embassy can advise you about this.
Any listed professions in demand
will represent approximately half of the
necessary points needed, and may even give you
extra points over professions that aren’t
listed. If you are planning to apply for
residency after your studies, it is much better
to choose a course where the profession is
listed as in demand.
Basically the courses that can lead
you to professions in demand can be divided into
two categories; technical level and university
level.

If you start studying any of the
professions listed in demand in your home
country, and want to finish it in Australia, you
will still have time to get the extra points,
since the duration of the remainder of the
course in Australia, is usually around two
years. Be aware that this information is only a
guide; some professions and courses will give
you more points than others, so plan your
studies and your budget accordingly. If you want
to know more, consult the immigration,
Agents
of Study, Immigration
Agents, Embassies or representatives
close to you. The official Immigration site (www.immi.gov.au)
will give you up-to-date information.

Roger
was happy when he knew the construction
sector was in demand in Australia but
what he didn't know was about the sizes
of the rocks he must carry every day.
