Camera Operator (Film, Television or Video) (ANZSCO 399512) is a trade occupation assessed by Trades Recognition Australia (TRA). Assessment is evidence-based against a nominated qualification — the Certificate IV in Screen and Media (CUA41220). Whether an individual meets the requirement depends on their own qualifications and work history.
The pathway depends on where and how experience was gained: PSA (485 (Post-Vocational Education Work)), Job Ready Program (JRP) (189/190/491 and 482/SID), MSA (Permanent skilled (MLTSSL/STSOL)). Each program has its own evidence and experience requirements set by TRA.
Completing a relevant CRICOS course can support a TRA pathway, but a successful skills assessment is a separate step with its own requirements. The courses listed on this page lead toward the nominated qualification; they are not themselves a guarantee of assessment or a visa outcome.
