that applicants have undertaken then assessment process with SPA prior to being
considered for employment. This is mandatory for those who wish to work in the
State of Queensland as they must register with the Queensland Board as part of
their process.
Overseas Speech Pathologists: If you are an overseas trained Speech Pathologist, we advise
you at your first step to contact Speech
Pathology Australia for an assessment. If you are from the United
Kingdom, United States or Canada then there is a mutual recognition agreement
between Australia and your country with respect to credentialing of
qualifications.
Once you have completed your Speech
Pathology Australia assessment, we can then start the next stages for
finding you employment and advice on visas.

opportunities for people between 18 and 30 to holiday in Australia and to
supplement their travel funds through incidental employment.
The visa allows a stay of up to 12 months from
the date of first entry to Australia, regardless of whether or not you spend the
whole time in Australia.
You are allowed to do any kind of work of a
temporary or casual nature, but work for more than three months with any one

Australia for a period of up to four years if they can't fill a vacancy from the
