Growing demand for management consultants

VETASSESS conducts skills assessments for management consultants who intend to apply for migration to Australia and the IMC is the professional organisation for management consultants.

Under the agreement, the Institute endorses VETASSESS’ skills assessment criteria for the occupation of management consultant and VETASSESS and the IMC will share insights and information on industry trends affecting the profession.

VETASSESS’ skills assessments for migration purposes involve assessing an applicant’s qualifications and employment against the requirements of their nominated occupation in Australia.

VETASSESS Executive Director Rob Thomason says management consultants who migrate can contribute knowledge of international markets to Australian businesses and different analytical approaches.

“Australia’s migrant population has played an important part in the nation’s growth and skilled migrants bring new ideas to their workplaces,” 

“Our collaborative relationship with the IMC will ensure that our assessment criteria remain relevant, so employers can have confidence in the skills of the people they hire.”

IMC, as the peak professional association for consultants in Australia, has rigorous assessment processes for membership and Certification which are line with internationally recognised competencies for consulting practice," 

“We are delighted to work with VETASSESS to assist those wishing to pursue the profession in Australia.”
