Purpose: The CDR pathway is designed for engineers who must demonstrate their skills and qualifications to meet the requirements for skilled migration in Australia.

Assessment Authority: Engineers Australia conducts the assessment, ensuring that the engineer’s qualifications are recognised and that they are eligible to work in Australia.

No, you should not copy your Competency Demonstration Report (CDR) from others. Engineers Australia (EA) strictly prohibits plagiarism in CDRs, and any form of copying from books, websites, journals, magazines, digital platforms, CDR samples, or previously submitted CDRs is seriously frowned upon. EA uses sophisticated software to detect copied content, and if plagiarism is found, the entire CDR will be rejected1. The CDR should be in your own words and written in the first person.

A complete Competency Demonstration Report (CDR) includes several components with specific length recommendations:

  • CPD (Continuing Professional Development): Should not exceed one A4-sized page and should be in list format.
  • Career Episodes: The three career episodes should be between 1,000 and 2,500 words.
  • Summary Statement: Typically, this is just one page long.
  • CV: The CV should be a maximum of three A4 pages.

Engineer registration involves a two-step process. First, have your qualifications, experience, and competence assessed by an approved entity like Engineers Australia (EA) to get an assessment outcome letter. Then, use this letter to apply for state registration with the relevant government. In Victoria, registration requires a four-year degree, 150 hours of professional development in the last three years, and five years of work experience.

It is not permissible to fabricate or copy projects for your CDR or career episodes. Engineers Australia (EA) requires that all content be original and based on your own experiences and work. Providing false or wrong information can lead to rejection of your application. Being a reputed CDR report writing service provider, we can yelp you choose the career episode.

An Engineers Australia skills assessment is usually valid for three years from the date it’s issued. However, the validity period may be shorter depending on the engineer’s circumstances.
