Due to a change in a third-party provider’s policy for digital badges, VETASSESS is unable to issue digital badges to successful applicants for marketing-related occupations and the Customer Service Manager occupations in some countries and regions.
However, this does not affect applicants’ ability to apply for a VETASSESS skills assessment or to lodge a visa application with the Department of Home Affairs, and also such applicants can get their digital badge when they arrive in Australia.
Successful applicants in marketing occupations will still receive membership of the Australian Marketing Institute, for 12 months, while successful applicants for the occupation of Customer Service Manager will receive membership of the Customer Service Institute of Australia.
VETASSESS will no longer be able to issue digital badges to successful applicants in the following countries and regions:
- Iran
- North Korea
- Syria
- Sudan
- Cuba
- Crimea and Sevastopol regions
- Donbas region
