To obtain a positive skills assessment classification from TRA using the
Australian qualification pathway you will be required to demonstrate 900
hours of relevant work experience in the occupation you are nominating.
Have a look at TRA's Uniform Assessment Criteria, which you can access
via this webpage:

Best regards.
