اولین قدم جهت اقدام برای اخذ ویزاهای مهارتی استرالیا، انتخاب کد رشته مناسب با تخصص متقاضی از یکی از لیستهای مشاغل مورد نیاز استرالیا و سپس اقدام جهت اخذ ارزشیابی از سازمان مرتبط با تخصص متقاضی در استرالیا می باشد.
توجه داشته باشید که لزوما تمامی انجمن های ارزیاب قوانین مشابهی با یکدیگر نداشته و بعضا در خصوص حداقل مدارک تحصیلی و یا مهارتی مورد نیاز، میزان حداقل سابقه کار مورد نیاز، لزوم ارائه مدرک زبان انگلیسی در زمان ارسال مدارک و حتی نمره و نوع آزمون زبان انگلیسی با یکدیگر تفاوت دارند.
بسته به تخصص متقاضیان، انجمنهای متعددی در استرالیا ارزیابی تخصص متقاضیان را انجام می دهند که لیست آنها در ذیل ارائه شده است:
