CASA offers Skills Assessment for pilots and other aviation professionals seeking to work in Australia under the skilled migration program.
The Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) is a government entity responsible for safeguarding aviation safety in Australia. CASA licences pilots, registers aircraft, certifies aerodromes, and oversees safety across various aviation operations, ensuring compliance with established standards. Additionally, CASA promotes safety awareness and facilitates the secure use and administration of Australian airspace and aerodromes by the aviation community and the public.
To qualify for a skills assessment, you must apply for a visa listed under the skilled occupations list (SOL) or Employer Nomination Scheme occupation list (ENSOL).
You should possess Australian flight crew qualifications enabling you to secure a pilot position in Australia.
You must hold a commercial pilot licence (CPL) or air transport pilot licence (ATPL) issued by the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA).
Eligibility to Pass the Skills Assessment:

Additional Requirement for Overseas Qualifications:
