ANZSCO is the Australian and New Zealand Standard Classification of Occupations. The criteria for the occupation have been set to ensure that the demand for employees in particular fields gets filled in a systematic way. According to VISA Consultant In Brisbane, the system makes the job profile quite clear to the applicant.
It has been developed jointly by the following organizations for collection, publication, and analysis of statistics related to occupation-
- The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS)
- Statistics New Zealand
- The Department of Education and Training
- major group
- sub-major group
- minor group
- unit group
- occupation
- Occupations are grouped to form unit groups
- Unit groups are grouped to form minor groups
- Aggregates of minor groups are called sub-major groups
- Sub major groups are aggregated to form major groups
- ANZSCO is used to assess the skill of the visa applicant.
- Registered Diploma from NewZeland
- Advanced Diploma or Diploma or AQF Associate Degree
- Three years of experience in a relevant field may be used as a substitute for the formal qualification.

- Again three years of relevant experience may be used to substitute for the formal qualification.
- NZ Register( Level 2 or 3 qualification )

- In this case, one year of relevant experience is considered equivalent to the formal qualifications.
- NZ Register Level 1 qualification
- AQF Certificate
