Hi, i am about to start the Oz visa process but need a little advice. I need to gain my AQFIII in Solid Plastering but im not sure how to find the cheapest most reliable company to do it with. If anybody has already been through this process can you tell me what is involved in the assessment eg.which topics and how in depth do they go, and also which is the best company in the UK to use as the prices i have been quoted so far are way to much..£2500 for example. Also i have already got my NVQII which i know is the english equivalent but can i use the evidence from that to put towards the AQF? Any help would be appreciated.
 
The NVQ11 is not the equivalent, advanced craft or as it is now level 3 is equivalent but thats not really enough now you need an indentured apprenticeship, up until a year ago the nvq2 and experience were enough but they got onto the fact they were given out willy nilly with the CSCS card. Go on a forum https://www.pomsinoz.com/ is a really good one for advise and plenty on getting assesed for AQF111.
 
Thanks for the info, will check it out. Im going to be applying under Skills pathway E for TRA which just requires an AQFIII and at least 4 years experience, ive already had this confirmed by TRA but just want to know the assessment content and which is the best company.

Up until 2 years ago i was applying, I was just doing my TRA i have a fully indentured apprenticeship so quals wasnt a problem there was also an extra 15 points for plasterers coz it was on the demands list (MODL) but i think its been pulled coz they didnt want to flood the country coz the recesion had just started over here. But if you are young enough and you have enough points you should be sound.
 
i have mine i did it myself its just filling forms out read the question and dont fill the answer out untill your certain no need to get ripped off altho i did mine in 2000/01
