Recognised Qualifications

Neuseeland erkennt an, dass gute Qualifikationen überaus wichtig sind für die Entwicklung des Landes, aber auch für die Möglichkeiten der Antragsteller in Neuseeland einen qualitativ hochwertigen Arbeitsplatz zu finden.

Antragsteller können daher in ihrer Expression of Interest 50-65 Punkte geltend machen, wenn sie nachweisen können, dass ihre Qualifikation mit einer anerkannten neuseeländischen Qualifikation vergleichbar ist.

Dieser Nachweis kann dadurch erbracht werden, dass die Ausbildung von der New Zealand Qualifications Authority anerkannt wird, oder wenn die Qualifikation in der List of Recognised Qualifications verzeichnet ist.

Angehörige einiger Berufsgruppen müssen in Neuseeland bei dem zuständigen Berufsverband registriert sein, um den Beruf ausüben zu dürfen. Diese Registrierungspflicht wirkt sich auf die in der EoI geltend zu machenden Punkte aus.

Recognition of qualifications

Source: Immigration New Zealand, accessed October 2006

Recognised qualifications are qualifications that a visa or immigration officer is satisfied occupies a level on the New Zealand Register of Quality Assured Qualifications (the Register) (see SM14.15) which qualifies it for points by reference to:

1. the level that the qualification(s) occupies on the Register as assessed by the New Zealand Qualifications Authority (NZQA); or
2. the level that the qualification(s) occupies on the Register as set out in the List of Recognised Qualifications (see Appendix 5); or
3. the level that the qualification(s) occupies on the Register having regard to the full or provisional registration of the principal applicant* by a New Zealand organisation authorised by law to give occupational registration, if that registration involves an assessment that the principal applicant's* overseas qualification(s) is comparable with a New Zealand qualification that is included on the List of Recognised Qualifications.

You will receive points for any qualifications that are assessed as level 3 or above on the New Zealand Register of Quality Assured Qualifications. If your qualification is assessed as level 3 or 4, it must be in an "acceptable trade"

.

Note: For teachers, 'provisional' registration includes both 'provisional' and 'subject to confirmation' registration. For medical practitioners, 'probationary' registration is considered to be 'provisional' registration.
