Skills Australia
Providing advice to Government on the new Skilled Occupation List (SOL) for migration purposes
Skills Australia has provided independent advice to the Australian
Government on the development of a new list of skilled occupations for
use in Australia’s General Skilled Migration program.
In February 2010, Skills Australia was asked to develop a new Skilled
Occupation List (SOL) for migration purposes, and update it on an annual
basis, identifying occupations which are of high value and will assist
in meeting the medium and long term needs of the Australian economy.
The new SOL has been published on the
Department of Immigration and
Citizenship website.
