About Migration Skills Assessment

The GSM program includes subclass 189, subclass 190, and subclass 491, as well as the employer-sponsored skills assessment for subclass 482 Skilled in Demand (SID) and the Employer Nomination Scheme (ENS) subclass 186 Direct Entry Stream visas and the Skilled Employer Sponsored Regional subclass 494 visas.

Its purpose is to evaluate the qualifications and skills of the overseas worker and compare them to the skill levels outlined in the Australian ANZSCO system.
