Trades Recognition Australia - new rules

Trades Recognition Australia (TRA) have now implemented a change in their assessment rules.

TRA are the assessment body for nearly all trades workers looking to migrate to Australia.

Now the assessment rules have been changed to require all applicants to be able to show 12 months experience in their trade in the last 24 months before applying. This mirrors the same Department of Immigration requirement.

Of course, this recent 12 months is in addition to previous experience / training to become recognised in one's trade. It will be interesting to see what other rule changes are introduced by TRA and other assessment bodies, prior to the new points system in July.
