Occupations assessed by ACPSEM

Medical Physicist (ANZSCO 234914); ACPSEM is the only approved assessing authority for this occupation.

Key Occupations

Medical Physicist

Always verify the designated assessing authority for your specific ANZSCO occupation code on the Department of Home Affairs skilled occupation list before applying.

Assessment requirements

Documentary panel assessment

Assessment is documentary and is carried out by a GSM Assessment Panel. There is no examination.

Eligibility evidence

Applicants are assessed against the English-language and educational and professional requirements set out in the General Skilled Migration Guidelines. Supporting qualification and experience documents must accompany the application.

Scope of the result

A successful assessment is issued solely for skilled migration purposes. It does not confer ACPSEM membership and does not result in inclusion on any register.

Validity of the outcome

ACPSEM does not state a fixed validity period for the assessment. The general Department of Home Affairs rule that a skills assessment must be no more than three years old when relied upon applies.

Why Visa Plan for your skill assessment with ACPSEM?

Occupation confirmation

We confirm the correct CSOL occupation title and the designated assessing authority for your specific role before you apply, avoiding the cost of an incorrect application.

Application preparation

A complete, well-prepared application reduces the risk of delay or adverse outcome. We advise on documentation requirements, employment reference content, and how to present your qualifications and experience.

Migration strategy

A positive skills assessment is a prerequisite, not a migration plan. We build your complete migration strategy from the assessment through to visa grant or permanent residence.
