Thanks for your question, Clara and welcome to our community 🙂
Quantity Surveyor is a recognised skilled occupation in Australia, listed under ANZSCO code 233213, and is currently on the Medium and Long-term Strategic Skills List (MLTSSL).
This means you’re potentially eligible for several skilled visa options, including:
- Subclass 482 (Temporary Skill Shortage visa) with employer sponsorship
- Subclass 186 (Employer Nomination Scheme)
- Subclass 189, 190, or 491 (points-tested skilled visas) if you meet other eligibility criteria
However, keep in mind that employers and assessing authorities typically expect a Bachelor’s degree or higher in Quantity Surveying.
A National Diploma alone might not meet the requirements, but you may still qualify if you have strong relevant experience. Here’s what to consider:
1. Skills Assessment with AIQS
The Australian Institute of Quantity Surveyors (AIQS) assesses this occupation. If your diploma is from a recognised institution and you have at least 3+ years of work experience, AIQS may still provide a positive skills assessment. Full details: https://www.aiqs.com.au
