Demystifying 'Not Elsewhere Classified' Occupations in VETASSESS Skills Assessments

By Jessica Thakur, August 31, 2024

Some occupations assessed by VETASSESS fall into the "nec" (not elsewhere classified) category, meaning they lack a specific identification within the Australian and New Zealand Standard Classification of Occupations (ANZSCO). This can make applying for a skills assessment under this category seem intimidating.

Understanding the 'nec' Category

Applying for a skills assessment under the ‘nec’ category involves matching your qualifications and experience to the broader ANZSCO unit group descriptions. VETASSESS provides guidance and specific tips to help applicants navigate this process:

  1. Relevance is Key: Your qualifications and experience must be highly relevant to one of the occupation titles listed in the ANZSCO description for the chosen occupation.

  2. Unique Titles Considered: Unique occupation titles not found elsewhere in ANZSCO may also be assessed on a case-by-case basis, provided they're specialized and related to the ANZSCO Unit Group.

  3. No Better Match: Your employment should not better match another existing ANZSCO code.

  4. ANZSCO Sub-Major Group: Review the ANZSCO Sub-Major Group description to ensure your skills fit within this broader category.

  5. Cover Letter Justification: Provide a cover letter explaining why you've chosen the 'nec' category.

  6. Include Relevant Training: Highlight relevant training and professional development in your CV or resume.


Example: Procurement Specialist

VETASSESS uses the example of a Procurement Specialist to illustrate how the 'nec' category works. This role, primarily focused on procurement within an organization, aligns with the skill level and ANZSCO Minor Group description of 224 Information and Organisation Professionals. However, it's important to distinguish this role from other distinct ANZSCO occupations like Procurement Manager, Supply and Distribution Managers, and various Supply and Logistics Clerks.

Choosing the Right Category

If your experience aligns strongly with another ANZSCO occupation, you cannot use that experience for an 'nec' classification. This emphasizes the importance of careful consideration before choosing the 'nec' category.

Skills Assessment Support

For those uncertain about the skills assessment process, VETASSESS offers Skills Assessment Support Services. This service provides tailored information and guidance via a 30-minute phone consultation, helping applicants understand the documentation requirements and assessment criteria.

In conclusion, while the 'nec' category may seem complex, understanding the guidelines and seeking support when needed can make the skills assessment process smoother for applicants whose occupations don't fit neatly into predefined ANZSCO categories.
