Yes. In Australia, a PGDip is AQF Level 8 and is widely recognised across the Commonwealth and by credential evaluators internationally. Acceptance for employment or licensing varies by country and profession. Always check the receiving body’s requirements and whether a master’s is preferred or required.
Australian qualifications are quality-assured by TEQSA and listed on CRICOS for international delivery. This supports global recognition. Where roles require a degree, consider articulating your PGDip into a master’s for stronger portability and visa options.
👉 See the Global Convention on the Recognition of Qualifications for formal guidance: https://www.unesco.org/education/recognition.
