Getting ready for qualification assessment.

Yesterday was busy. All three of my university transcripts have arrived. This means that I can apply to the NZQA, using the link below this paragraph, to have all of my qualifications assessed. This is a necessary step that should take about 4-6 weeks depending on post. The form is about 18 pages long, the first 12 pages being instructions on how to fill in the last 6 pages.

The form

You need to send the original and a copy of EVERYTHING. The website is quite clear about what to include and the instructions get 10/10 from me for clarity. They even want your High School Certificates. Time to dig out the Higher and O grade results.

It costs NZ$450 to have the assessment done with another NZ$36 to return your original documents (or included a FEDEX/DHL bag). You can fast track the application for another NZ$150, which I will not be doing.

Well time to go fill in another form.
