Sports Coach, Instructor and Official (ANZSCO unit group 4523) is an occupation group rather than a single occupation, so the group itself is not a row on the Core Skills Occupation List. 3 of the 11 occupations it covers are CSOL-listed, and a skilled visa pathway may be available under that specific title. Assessment is always against the specific occupation. See the list below.

A skills assessment is made against a specific occupation, not against the group, so the first step is identifying which of these 11 applies to you; each card marks the occupation lists its code sits on as at 2026-09-25, and links to the firm's page for that occupation where there is one.
