Hi

 

My wife is working in Melbourne at the moment but we are looking to move to SA in early 2008 , my wife has an NVQ Level 2 in care with about 6 years experience,she works as a disability support worker for an agency at the moment does anyone know if the SA companies recognise NVQs ? I know in WA they do but in Vic its not really seen as a recognised qual...any help much appreciated

 

thanks

hiya all,

i am not sure how it works with nvqs, but your job sounds like it would fall into the welfare worker category to me which is needed in SA. but to get points for that i think they ask for a degree (?)
