03.01.2022 ** Year 12 qualifications from Punjab School Education Board no longer recognised by DIBP for student visa applications** According to a report in the Times of India, in a rejection letter sent to an Indian student who had applied for a "vocational education and training sector (subclass 572) visa", the department’s refusal letter stated that "education and examinations conducted through the PSEB are not listed as equivalent to an Australian Grade 12 qualification under the A...ustralian Education International - National Office of Overseas Skills Recognition Guidelines (AEI-NOOSR)". According to the report Punjab education minister Daljit Singh Cheema is investigating the matter. Mr Cheema told the newspaper that, "PSEB is one of the best boards in the country. Till date, thousands of students who have passed from PSEB are studying in different parts of the world and excelling in their respective fields. The board is strictly following the National Curriculum Framework - 2005 and is a member of the Council of Board of Secondary Education (COBSE). The PSEB is a statutory authority that governs almost every aspect and stage of school education in Punjab. Mr Cheema said that any student facing difficulties in obtaining recognition of their PSEB studies when applying for an overseas visa should notify the PSEB so that the matter "could be further raised to the highest level at the earliest."----source (Migration Alliance)
