Jobs and Skills Australia has released a draft list of jobs that will be prioritised for fast-tracking visas. Here's what is — and isn't — on the list.
Yoga and martial arts instructors, jewellery designers and dog trainers are among the jobs being prioritised for skilled migrants in Australia. The list also includes artistic directors, divers and retail buyers, while trades including plumbers and bricklayers remain under consideration. The draft Jobs and Skills Australia Confident On List details professions eligible for fast-tracked visas.
Family support workers, social workers, and youth workers are also being prioritised, along with veterinarians, ambulance officers, psychologists, and drug and alcohol counsellors. Australia is also in need of educators, including university lecturers, early childhood educators, primary and secondary school teachers, school principals, and special education teachers, according to the list.
