4. 社会工作者的移民情况:
该专业是Social Woker - 272511位列SOL清单,同时也在CSOL,是雇主提名认可专业。澳大利亚移民局数据显示,2012-2013年度,移民配额为1260个,但是半年过去了,才有80个申请,严重存在供小于求的现状,随着老年化和亚洲移民的增多,社会工作人员的需求还将快速增加。
5. 关于移民职业评估英文要求:
只要拿到AASW的会员资格,就相当于拿到了职业评估,不过申请人需要达到以下一个语言要求。
A. 在澳、加、新、爱、英国和美国完成小学和中学。
或者
B. 在澳、加、新、爱、英国和美国完成至少3年本科或硕士学习。
C. 在澳、加、新、爱、英国和美国完成3年社会工作者工作经验。需要工作证明作为证据。
D. 如果海外学位持有人利用海外的相关学历来申请评估,则需要雅思A类4个7分(G类不可以)。
总结:在澳洲留学的学生只要总共学习不少于3年,是不要英文就可以拿到职业评估的。
6. 留学生的课程选择:
我本科不是社会工作者但是在澳洲学2年社会工作硕士可以申请吗?
无需本科是社会工作专业,比如本科是心理学、社会课程、社会学、咨询顾问学等也可以申请,不过硕士必须是Qualifying的硕士才可以。
