About Karolina Caroline Curcic

Welcome, I’m Karolina and I present my webinars in an informative, interactive yet interesting way.  I have been told that I’m a very good trainer but I will leave that up to you the participant to decide.

I have been a Registered Migration Agent since 2011. My love of migration was inspired by my father whom I used to assist whilst my daughter was younger, and it was his passion in helping people, this joy at his clients receiving their visas, and the respectable way he spoke to each and every client that inspired me to be that same Agent, one that performs her job with the client’s best interest in mind, with the same enthusiasm and respect my father taught me. He is now retired but still loves to hear my migration stories:)

Through the years I have never advertised, all of my clients have approached me through recommendations and it’s fair to say that I have lodged a large volume of visa applications.

Aside from migration, I am now presenting webinars and this has been a new outlet of creativity for me and I have found a new passion.  Not many people are lucky enough to have found the very thing that inspires and drives them but I can say that LTA has given me that opportunity and I am proud to say I am a LTA Presenter.

I hope to see you soon and I hope you enjoy the interactive nature of my webinars.

A Designated Area Migration Agreement (DAMA) is a flexible way for states, territories and/or regions to deal with their individual economic and labour conditions through a labour agreement-based framework.

Under a DAMA, employers in designated areas who have skills and labour shortages can sponsor skilled and semi-skilled overseas workers.

This session is an intensive workshop which will explain how DAMAs work, the stages involved, and what can be achieved using them.

Whilst perhaps overly complicated, DAMAs can be a useful tool to assist regional employers in gaining access to the human resources they need to help ensure their ongoing viability.

Agents should come away from this session more confident in explaining DAMAs as a viable option to their clients.

About Karolina Caroline Curcic

Welcome, I’m Karolina and I present my webinars in an informative, interactive yet interesting way.  I have been told that I’m a very good trainer but I will leave that up to you the participant to decide.

I have been a Registered Migration Agent since 2011. My love of migration was inspired by my father whom I used to assist whilst my daughter was younger, and it was his passion in helping people, this joy at his clients receiving their visas, and the respectable way he spoke to each and every client that inspired me to be that same Agent, one that performs her job with the client’s best interest in mind, with the same enthusiasm and respect my father taught me. He is now retired but still loves to hear my migration stories:)

Through the years I have never advertised, all of my clients have approached me through recommendations and it’s fair to say that I have lodged a large volume of visa applications.

Aside from migration, I am now presenting webinars and this has been a new outlet of creativity for me and I have found a new passion.  Not many people are lucky enough to have found the very thing that inspires and drives them but I can say that LTA has given me that opportunity and I am proud to say I am a LTA Presenter.

I hope to see you soon and I hope you enjoy the interactive nature of my webinars.
