In Australian Immigration, the Skilled stream of the Migration Program is designed to attract migrants who make a significant contribution to the Australian economy and fill positions where no Australian workers are available through Australian Skilled Immigration Points. Skilled migrants have very high participation rates in the workforce, helping to stimulate economic growth, which results in more jobs.
The Skilled stream also plays an important role in regional development through providing skills and labor which can’t be sourced locally, as well as encouraging investment and promoting local spending in regional areas.
