Skills Assessment Requirements

What you need to get your skills assessed for this occupation.

ACPSEM provides skills assessment services for Medical Physicists (ANZSCO Code 23914) applying for General Skilled Migration visas to Australia. Applicants must meet English language, educational, and professional requirements as detailed in ACPSEM's GSM Guidelines.

Important note

A successful skills assessment does not guarantee ACPSEM membership, inclusion on the ACPSEM Register, or employment as a Medical Physicist in Australia. The assessment does not address competency in specific Medical Physics sub-disciplines. ACPSEM is the only approved assessing authority for the Medical Physicist occupation category. Applicants must post certified hardcopies of documents in addition to digital uploads; ACPSEM cannot process applications without receiving and verifying hardcopies. Additional supporting evidence may be requested, which could delay the assessment outcome. ACPSEM cannot provide advice on migration applications; queries must be directed to the Department of Home Affairs."
