    Default Do I need IPENZ?

    Hello there, my Degree is Civil Engineering but most of my work experience is QS, my occupation now here in NZ is QS as well. The question is, Do I need to do IPENZ assessment even though my occupation/visa is Quantity Surveyor? Any similar situation there? Thanks

    Under the LTSSL box here http://skillshortages.immigration.go...tity-surveyor/ it states what you need as follows:
    One of the following:
    - A bachelor's degree at NZQF Level 7, or a higher qualification with the minimum equivalent of 360 credits, which includes the requirements of a New Zealand major in quantity surveying or construction economics
    - Student or Affiliate Membership, or MNZIQS, of the New Zealand Institute of Quantity Surveyors (with an overseas degree approved by NZIQS)
    AND
    a minimum of three years’ relevant post-qualification work experience
    So that looks as though you don't need IPENZ, but you do need your degree to be checked and approved by NZIQS. Have we any other Quantity Surveyors here who can comment?
