If you’re looking to gain hands-on, workplace-based training in Australia to enhance your skills, qualifications, or professional expertise, the Training Visa (Subclass 407) is your gateway to real-world experience. This temporary visa enables you to improve your career prospects through structured training in your current occupation, area of tertiary study, or field of expertise.
At Migration Guru, we help both individuals and sponsoring organisations navigate the complex requirements of this visa—ensuring the right nomination stream, training plan, and documentation are in place for a successful outcome.
✅ What Is the Subclass 407 Training Visa?
The Subclass 407 Visa allows you to participate in workplace-based training or a professional development program in Australia. It is ideal for those seeking occupational registration, industry-specific upskilling, or capacity building.
This is a temporary visa, and the stay can be granted for up to 2 years. You can travel in and out of Australia freely while the visa is valid.
🎯 Who Can Apply for the 407 Visa?
This visa is suited for:
✔️ Overseas professionals looking to undertake workplace training
✔️ Individuals needing practical training for occupational licensing or registration
✔️ International graduates building capacity in their field of study
✔️ Employees of overseas organisations undertaking professional development
🧾 Types of Training Covered Under the 407 Visa
You must be nominated by an approved sponsor, and your nomination must match one of the three eligible training categories:
- Occupational Training for Registration or Licensing
This stream is for applicants who need to complete training to obtain registration, licensing, or membership for their occupation either in Australia or in their home country. - Occupational Training to Improve Skills in an Eligible Occupation
This is for people with at least 12 months of full-time experience in the last 2 years who are undertaking structured workplace training to improve their skills in an occupation listed on the skilled occupation list. - Occupational Training for Capacity Building Overseas
This includes:
• Training required as part of an overseas qualification
• Government-supported traineeships
• Structured professional development for overseas staff
During the nomination process, the sponsor must outline the type of training, the purpose, the location, and details about the nominee and training plan.
