Migration Skills Assessment

Providing support to managers and leaders migrating to Australia

The Institute of Managers and Leaders Australia and New Zealand is contracted as an assessing authority by the Australian Government to assess senior-level management skills, for the purpose of skilled migration to Australia.

If you are a senior-level manager migrating to Australia, on a skilled work visa, you might be required to complete a skill assessment through us. Not all work visas require a skill assessment, we encourage you to do your research or consult with a registered migration agent.

Current Service Delay: Due to increased demand and lowered capacity, we are currently experiencing a delay of approximately one week in outcome delivery. We sincerely apologise for this delay.

Office Closure: Please note that the office will be closed from Thursday, 25th December 2025 and will reopen on Monday, 12th January 2026. This closure may cause further delays to your application process.
