Assessment Inquiry for Chemistry Technician Occupation ANZSCO 311411
Greetings to all! 🙂
I’m seeking advice regarding the skill assessment process for the Chemistry Technician role (ANZSCO 311411) under VETASSESS.
I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering and have been employed for one year at a coal mining laboratory.
The role involves testing fuel (coal), which aligns with the duties of a Chemistry Technician.
Do you believe my educational background and work experience meet the requirements for a successful skill assessment?
Any insights would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hi there and welcome ☺️
For the Chemistry Technician (ANZSCO 311411) skill assessment with VETASSESS, the key requirements include:
Qualifications:
VETASSESS typically requires at least an AQF Diploma (or equivalent) in chemistry or a closely related field.
Since your degree is in Civil Engineering, it may not be considered highly relevant. However, if your coursework included substantial chemistry-related subjects, you could request a qualification assessment to determine its comparability.
Work Experience:
You need at least one year of post-qualification work experience in a role that closely matches the Chemistry Technician job description.
Your work in a coal mining laboratory testing fuel (coal) does seem relevant, but VETASSESS will evaluate whether your duties align closely enough with the ANZSCO-defined tasks for a Chemistry Technician.
Since your qualification is not directly related to chemistry, VETASSESS might assess your work experience more critically.
You may need to demonstrate that your duties are highly relevant to the occupation, possibly by providing detailed employment references, job descriptions, and evidence of tasks performed.
I recommend checking directly with VETASSESS ( https://vetassess.com.au ) for a preliminary qualification assessment or reaching out to a migration agent for tailored advice.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have further questions.
All the best
