ANZSCO Codes for Engineers

ANZSCO, the Australian and New Zealand Standard Classification of Occupations, is the system used to categorize all available job positions in Australia and New Zealand. Each occupation is assigned a unique six-digit ANZSCO code based on the required skills for that particular job. When submitting a Competency Demonstration Report (CDR) for immigration purposes, verifying the ANZSCO code associated with your occupation is crucial to ensure you are nominated for the appropriate visa.

At CDR Writer Australia, we are available to assist with any queries or uncertainties regarding ANZSCO codes. To accurately complete your Workplace Profile, indicate your occupation's assigned ANZSCO group code in the "Occupational Category" field. Additionally, when preparing a CDR Report, it is essential to reference the relevant ANZSCO code. You can search ANZSCO code to identify your occupation's code conveniently.

How to Select ANZSCO Code?

There are certain things to keep in mind while choosing your ANZSCO Code. They are:

1. Know Your Field

To choose the correct ANZSCO code, you need to know the type of engineering work you will be doing. Australia has a range of engineering specializations, including mechanical engineering, civil engineering, electrical engineering, etc.

2. Be aware of the options available

For example, if the candidate does not meet the minimum requirements for Engineering Manager Occupational Category, they should apply as a Professional Engineer.

3. Review the ANZSCO codes for engineering occupations

ANZSCO provides a list of codes for different engineering occupations. You can find the complete list of ANZSCO codes on the Australian Bureau of Statistics website.

4. Match your job duties to the ANZSCO codes

Look at the job duties for each ANZSCO code and see if they match the work you will be doing. For more clarification, consult a migration agent or a professional association for guidance.

ANZSCO Classification and Its Structure

The structure of ANZSCO has five levels:

• Major Group
• Sub-major Group
• Minor Group
• Unit group
• Occupation

At the most detailed level, fields are grouped to form 'unit groups,' which are then grouped into 'minor groups.' These minor groups are further aggregated to form 'sub-major groups,' which are then grouped at the highest level to form 'major groups'.

It is important to note that ANZSCO excludes occupations wholly illegal in New Zealand and all States and Territories of Australia. This means these illegal occupations are prohibited in the ANZSCO unit group. However, ANZSCO does not prevent the description of such activities.

ANZSCO and Occupation Lists

These lists contain the Skilled Occupation List (SOL), the Consolidated Sponsored Occupation List (CSOL), and the Regional Occupation List (ROL).

The Skilled Occupation List (SOL)

The Skilled Occupation List (SOL) is used for independent skilled migration. Individuals not sponsored by an employer or family member can use this list to apply for a visa. The SOL is updated regularly to reflect changes in the Australian labor market and the needs of different industries.

Consolidated Sponsored Occupation List (CSOL)

The Consolidated Sponsored Occupation List (CSOL) is used for skilled migration programs requiring employer or family member sponsorship. If your occupation is on the CSOL, you may be eligible for a visa if an employer or family member sponsors you.

Regional Occupation List (ROL)

The Regional Occupation List (ROL) is used for skilled migration to regional areas of Australia. This list is designed to encourage skilled workers to settle in regional areas experiencing skill shortages.
