Australia/emmigrating

Question
Hi Michelle I am looking to emmigrate to Australia/New Zealand in the next year or so and I have an NVQ3 in early learning and am employed at e pre-school in England. Is this qualification recognised in Australasia as I am led to believe? And would it be relatively easy, in principle, to find such employment?

Answer
Hi Debbie,
I'm not an expert in emmigrating to Australia. However, it is my understanding that the NVQ3 qualification is recognized in Australia.  It is possible that some states may have some additional requirements for education.  You can find out some additional information here: http://www.australia.gov.au/
Hope this helps!
