A Designated Area Migration Agreement (DAMA) lets employers in a specific Australian region sponsor skilled and semi-skilled workers for occupations that region needs. Each region publishes its own occupation list and requirements. Below are all 13 regions we track.
DAMA is employer-first: a job offer from an approved employer in the designated region generally precedes the skills assessment. Requirements (qualification level, relevant experience) are set per region and per occupation. HigherStudy consolidates the published lists; it does not assess eligibility.
