No, as You will probably still be required to do the necessary Australia Auditor accreditation(s) to be certified/recognised and Work as internal Auditor in Australia.
Like i said earlier, the PR visa gives you "unlimited working and residency rights in Australia".
You can do any job and have more than one job. you could even get a job as an Eletrical Engineer Quality Inspector .
you can save and raise the money/funds to do the necesary accreditation to be recognised as a pracitising internal auditor in Australia.
Upon which you can look for jobs/roles in Internal Auditor roles.
And for when you the Engineers Australia assessment and get the PR visa, target state government jobs. Pay is not bad and you have soooooo much time to yourself, with flex working conditions and WFH arrangements.
The road to Jerusalem is not necessarily a straight road.
You will need your transcripts, education qualifications, IELTS, Tax receipts and Employment letter and Refeence letter as Technical Audior/Quality Inspector in the Power Sector and then you can claim this work experience as an Engineer. Of course you wil need to re-edit your CV to engineering based experience. However should you have several managerial experience, kindly add it even though it is not engineering related.
What is the essence of Skills assessment without accessing experience for a Skilled migration ??..all the CDR process for Engineering Technologist... you are obviously less attractive if you do am Expression of Interest with no experience....who is going to invite you.. I am just curious
Obinnau:
yes it is and I am pleased with it. I was already quoted very outrageous prices before I found him.
I can understand... since you are helping him market it. Maybe consider putting more information like material used....like 4mm or 5mm thickness or plate name or maybe the gate size... you never know who is reading...all the best 👌 cheers !
Obinnau:
I just purchased this gate from a young man in Ebonyi at 400k. If you are in the southeast, especially Enugu and Ebonyi and need to purchase a gate, I am marketing for him and I would like you to purchase from him or ask him to construct for you. He impressed me with his sincerity and promptness. Even though I was not around, my gate was delivered in one piece and promptly.
Yes, you will need to 3 CDRs Reports and other documentation for Migration skill assessment by Engineers Australia for a result of Professional Engineer.
Mate, you need to get an official reference letter with the company letterhead.
Yes If your supervisor writes the letter, it must come with the company's letter head
Yes, [b]stamp your student transcript in court before forwarding to them. It will help to avoid any [/b]doubt.
Transcripts are mostly sent directly to institutions intended...How do you get the Transcript to stamp it at the court...

Thanks for sharing. I love this guy work, he invest in tools that most Naija technician wont buy to make their job easier. Its annoying seeing many of these guys struggling with outdated tools, spending hours in a job that ordinarily should take them minutes. The funny thing about them, even after making money that should be invest in tools for the next job, they will rather invest it in a bank that wont appreciate their investment if you know what I mean
Agree 💯 ...Right tools enhances efficiency......I always talk about the 3Es .
Effectiveness is doing "the right" things, for example setting right targets to achieve an overall goal (the effect).
Efficacy is getting things done. It is the ability to produce a desired amount of the desired effect, or success in achieving a given goal.
Efficiency is doing things in the most economical way. It is the ratio of the output to the inputs of any system (good input to output ratio).
I came upon this post and it makes me kinda sad. Whoever posted this has obviously been duped by quarks and he is now projecting his experience everywhere. Before I proceed let it be known that I am not an installer neither do I do solar installation commercially.. I don't take jobs so I am not here for business. I am here just to share my experience on the viability of solar as an alternative and how economical it is.
Who am I, and what are my creds. I am an off-grid solar enthusiast and someone who have been using solar since 2016.. I have been completely off the nigerian grid since 2018 and I continue to live off-grid today. I setup my own system DIY and I also contribute a lot in of advocacy education and enlightenment on how we can improve the general standard and quality of installation and solar equipment available in Nigeria.
I run a Telegram group called "DIY Solar Nigeria" which has grown to over 6000 . The group is focused on sharing experience and peer to peer for Nigerians into solar or about to get into solar. We educate ourselves on best practices, resolve issues, share information on authorized dealers on solar product etc.
Like I said currently power my house completely on solar. I have a 10kW solar array, 10kva inverter and a 28kWh Lithium battery.
This system powers everything in the house. including 2 AC (1 can run for 12 hours and the other can run 24 hours) I also have vaccum, air fryer, 250 liter freezer 220 liter fridge (both of which are always run), I have a 1.5hp water pump, microwave and a home computer lab with over 15 mostly low power computers including a home automation cctv and media system + 2 65 inch TV and a host of other home appliances.
I have been growing my system little by little since 2016.. you can check my post history.
So yes, with the current state of things as at 2025, you can have a solar setup that would power all your house needs at least have 1 or 2 ACs especially if their are inverter ACs,
The biggest challenge is finding a competent installer who would do a competent system for you.
The hardest part of solar is design (it is not different from construction in that regards) once you start with a good design to match usage.. then you are off to a good start.
Here are some solar schematics I have worked on which you can use as reference for your own setup
Oga solar
Although I call it Oga solar, this is actually a slightly above mid sized system which should power 1 inverter AC run at least 12 hours a day especially when used with grid. It would be a very good generator replacement. I have indicated the average power that can be put on such a system in a daily basis. https://solarplan-l.openculture.org.ng/?ref=blog.openculture.org.ng

So people from UK....america come to nigeria for detty december and spend their cash with their atms(Visa or mastercard and others)....now xmas is over and they have all gone back to base...Some of them have now gone to their banks to claim that some of charges they didn't spend it or recognize it...Banks would take the information to the Visa/master card... when you buy anything from any business they use middle men called Stripe to help them collect the payment .
Now stripe is asking the business they collected funds to that this payments are genuine and are correct...if the business cannot prove it ...they will lose the money plus things already bought

The normal crushed stones for German floor and foundation is what I bought, I booked on time I got it within 3 days, but na the transportation plus levy and permit gulped up to that amount.
I was just wondering where you booked..crushed Rock and Niger Stones have offices in Uyo and Akampa/netim..offcourse there are some others as well..
Please, what do you mean by skill retake for a section he scored low? Can one do IELTS for selected modules now? Please, clarify. Thanks
He meant that one can book one section of the IELTS especially where you got 7,5 to in order to get 8....if you have 8 in all four section that is 20points.
But the problem is you can only book this within 60 days of the first examination. Read more here
So you can see the difficulty in recruiting a skilled carpenter and er to do a very basic woodworking job. Then people turn around and say there's unemployment in Nigeria. The fact is what Nigeria is experiencing is structural unemployment. Over the years, there has not been the needed training in vocational qualifications and apprenticeships. Apart from the Ibo nation to a large extent, apprenticeship training is dead in Nigeria. Youths and school leavers no longer "learn work". Before, they go into keke business, now is skits and content creators.
Enough of tertiary qualifications as there is a glut. So so paper qualifications, not enough skills acquisition.
You captured everything succinct...not long ago i was invited to speak to youths in my village about self sufficiency and helping oneself...many of these people are complaining diasporans AIN'T HELPING THEM.(everyone get their own problem)I asked them " How many have learnt trades like block making or painting even Masonry or even Carpentery,plumbing and require a equipment to start ...NONE ...MANY want cash to do one business or the other or keke or keke bus or even Japa without a plan.
Good day Thanks for your reply.
I am a bit confused.
This was your initial post
So he has
1. a positive assessment from Engneers Australia as Engineering Technologist with relevant Expereince for ICT Engineering.
2. However he will not be getting any point for Relevant Employemnet as his EA assessment was without relevant experience assessment.
3. For his age, I think he needs points for Relevant experience assessment.
3. he has Proficient English Test Report for himself and competent English Test Report for his Wife.
4. This comes to about 60 points. He needs to improve on the points
5. If the points was way more than 60 points, I would have advised for EOI directly but alas he needs to improve his points standing. After going through your reply where he worked as a foreman, he should not have gone through Engineers Australia.
6. seems he might need to spend again on relevant skilled assessment.
Could he try the following
1. ANZSCO Code: 139914/ Quality Assurance Manager.
2. ANZSCO Code: 133512/Production Manager.
Thank you for your comments..my understanding is that skill assessment using experience through
VETASSESS are based on your current experience....it needs securing reference letters and salary slip and would have been impossible for production manager or quality assurance manager...ones he considered closer was ANZSCO Code: 312911 maintenance planner ...Process Engineer (Industrial) 233511 Industrial Engineer and 233513 Production or Plant Engineer ...Those Indian migration experts on Facebook convinced him Engineering Technologist has better chance than those....
I do not understand.
What advise ?
He has English Test report for himself and wife, and EA Asssement, so what advise does he need again?
Shouldn't he be submitting his EOI immediately like yesterday?
Thank you for your comment...here is my concern...his skills accessment was done without any relevant skills/experience just bsc...His 10+ work does not match his qualifications..man has worked as foreman in production at Carlsberg the past 10 years..
Any roofing tiles company that imports and does steel rolling and bending of ridges is not just an importer but a metal fabrication company. Such business is not a #1b business. They don’t have time for small s. They are different from those importers at the open market like Orile cooker where you can just go and pick and already made size they have.
There are different levels to this things. An average DIY builder or an importer cannot bent ridges. They don’t have the machine and technological know to do so. There own is just buying and selling. The best they will have is an already made one not customized to the specific roof. Na there leaking wahala they take start.
As big asTower aluminium or any of their subsidiaries....ASABA.BAC,PGN ,MIDGAL..etc...you can walk in and ask for measurements and buy your roofing materials....
Even the Japad want to rejapa...help me advice my friend..I have suggested to him to try the pte again for proficiency that is an extra 10pts there i think....I dont even know what else....stakes seem so high this days...
So far, He's got positive outcome from EA for engineering technologist...

What's the thickness of the roofing sheet? - if it's less than 0.5mm, then i'll advice you go for Nigerite Litespan.
i.e my 1st choice would be a 0.55mm thick Aluminium roofing sheet, then a 0.5mm thick and then the Nigerite slate. (0.45mm is not advisable now because the thickness are not complete as it used to be before now)
cc: timilehing
Is this a fact ?my at Best Aluminium says atleast for them even their other competitors First Aluminum and Firtst Express don't have any problem with thickness. Metcoppo had design flaw coupled with poor currugators + handling that cause it break even before installing...
Other than that 0,45 very suitable guage for any roof not flat... I guess one who is buying roofing sheets should ensure they buy from reputable companies same way we rods...
..I find it strange that materials of exactly 3M was/were stolen ..same for equipment worth 1M was/were stolen...
What equipment were/was stolen? And material?
ajabani4allah:
I was told that it's not advisable to use 0.45mm Step-tiles for roofing that one should use higher gauge Step-tiles instead. Pls is this correct?
I dont get what they mean not adviseable...0,45 is a very good gauge for roofing..our climate isn't prone to hurricanes or adverse weather or is your building skyscraper? 0,45 is very appropriate for wood and not steel raft..
What baffles me most on here is people look at a quotation and they conclude it's too much.... WITHOUT HAVING A VIEW OF THE AREA OR DETAILS associated with the estimate.
For note. A 2 bedroom can cost 1m to build while a 1 bedroom wld cost 2m.
Its not by number of rooms and it's not by area alone...
My advice is simple.
Get sm1 to do the estimate for you for comparism sake... The elevations you attached don't have enough details to know if the estimate is excessive or not.
Goodluck.
You are a Gem...I always look forward to your comments...Thank you for all your efforts and contributions...cheers
Min Oga...jisike sir ...
Looking at this picture considering slope and tilt ..are there no risk with rain water going in with this level... or maybe this Pic doesn't depict accurate level..
Good job sir...
For educational purposes ...I see you use few times the combo of srne inverters mppt trackers and other make of lithium batteries...is it for saving cost or because you trust that battery more than srne battery packs ?...
2. Jinko or suntech solar s which is more reliable and cost effective?
Thank you...

*Thanks for the reply. My issue is that i will need to score 79+ in PTE exam for me to attain 65points, but i can easily attain 65+ in the PTE exam according to my present performance, which is in english proficient level that gives me a total of 55points(in EOI) when checking my eligibility.pls i want to know if i can submit an EOI with 55points for subclass 149 knowing i'll be given 15 extra points from the province/state? do i need to have 65points before putting in my EOI?*
Honestly I don't know...I am sure there are many people knowledgeable enough in this page that help with an answer...
Yes.. as they says truth is bitter.
Based on my experience / duration in this industry it’s better I tell you truth straight if you like take it if you like don’t take it, it’s not by force
Reason why I choose work that I take now .
No time and energy to dey explain explain explain tired …….

On side note we are using this imported railing for this our Royal Hall
Truth is not always bitter...it can be flat and straight forward. It does not necessarily need to be condescending and out of touch....especially when someone is in need.

Hello house, Please do i need to have 65points before i submit an EOI for subclass 491 regional & subclass 190? because the only thing holding me back at the moment is PTE results.. pls i need your reply ASAP! thanks n God bless
