ATME · Talent Migration & Education | Updated May 2026
What is the Subclass 407 Visa?
The Training visa (Subclass 407) allows you to come to Australia for workplace-based occupational training to improve your professional skills.
This is not a work visa — the core purpose is training and skill development, not productive employment.
Three Training Categories
1. Occupational Training for Registration
Training required to obtain occupational registration or licensing in your home country (e.g. doctors, nurses, engineers).
2. Occupational Training to Improve Skills
Structured training to enhance your skills in an eligible occupation.
3. Occupational Training for Capacity Building Overseas
Sponsored by Australian government agencies or charitable organisations for overseas capacity building.
