How to immigrate to Australia after studying TAFE

1. How to immigrate after studying TAFE

Of course, there are two main ways to immigrate to Australia after studying TAFE. The first is skilled migration. At present, about a quarter of the occupations in the list of skilled immigrants are skilled workers. Although it is only a quarter, in practice, due to various restrictions on college courses, there are far more courses to choose from when reading TAFE than college courses. If you don't believe me, just find a study abroad institution and ask what major you recommend to study in a university. You can immigrate after graduation. You will find that there are only a few, such as IT, engineering and accounting. Of course, many unpopular occupations can be immigrated in theory.

the second mode of immigration is employer sponsorship. The mechanic occupation is the most guaranteed by the employer. The reason is very simple. Let's go back to the previous example of electrician, and there was already an employer in class. If there are no accidents, after graduation, I will naturally continue to work with the same employer, and I will guarantee you as long as the employer is willing. On the contrary, if you graduated from a university, it would be very, very good to find a job, not to mention the employer's guarantee.

2. where to study? What school?

There are only 42 universities in Australia, while TAFE has 64 universities. There are far more choices to study TAFE than universities, let alone private technical schools. As for where to study, please read the previous article. Note that the choice of studying TAFE is not limited to Tasmania and the Northern Territory.

3. How to choose a TAFE school

When choosing a TAFE, it is often not like a university that values comprehensive rankings, but will pay more attention to professional rankings and reputation. Just like Lan Xiang and New Oriental, there are still great differences between different schools.

in addition to the professional strength of the school, the internship resources owned and provided by the school are very important because all the courses of mechanics are internships or apprenticeships. The same is true for western chefs. Students from one school practice at the Hilton Hotel and another school works at a street takeaway shop. The experience they have learned and the resources they have been exposed to will be completely different, which will have a great impact on their future development.
