    Whether you hold a technical diploma, vocational certificate, advanced diploma, or professional qualification from an overseas institution, obtaining a certified English translation is a critical step in having your credentials recognised in Australia or the United States. Diploma-level qualifications represent a significant body of practical and theoretical learning, and the translation must faithfully convey not just the qualification title but the institution's standing, the program duration, the specialisation area, and any grades or honours awarded.

    For skilled migration to Australia, your diploma translation will typically be submitted to a skills assessment authority as part of your visa application. Trades Recognition Australia (TRA) handles trade-level qualifications for occupations on the skilled occupation lists. VETASSESS assesses a wide range of professional and paraprofessional occupations where diploma-level qualifications are the benchmark. State and territory licensing authorities for regulated trades and professions also require translated credentials. In every case, NAATI-certified translation is the accepted standard — translations by friends, family, or unqualified translators are not accepted by these bodies.

    The distinction between a diploma and a degree matters for skills assessment purposes, as the two correspond to different levels on the Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF). A diploma is generally assessed at AQF Level 5 (Diploma) or AQF Level 6 (Advanced Diploma/Associate Degree), while a bachelor's degree sits at AQF Level 7. The translation must accurately represent what the original document states so that the assessing authority can make the correct equivalency determination. Misrepresenting a diploma as a degree — or vice versa — in translation would undermine the entire assessment.

    For US immigration, diploma translations are required for H-2B skilled worker petitions, EB-3 employment-based immigration, and professional licensing in regulated industries. Credential evaluation agencies such as WES and ECE need certified translations to compare your qualification against US standards. Mighty Translation provides certified diploma translations that meet the requirements of all Australian and US assessment bodies, licensing authorities, and immigration agencies — delivered within 24-48 hours as a digital PDF with optional posted hardcopy.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is the difference between this and a degree certificate translation?

    A diploma is typically a vocational or technical qualification (AQF Level 5-6), while a degree is a university qualification (AQF Level 7+). Both require certified translation, but they are assessed at different levels by skills assessment bodies. We translate both accurately.

    Is the translation accepted by TRA for trade qualification assessment?

    Yes. Our NAATI-certified translations are accepted by Trades Recognition Australia for all trade qualification pathways including the Job Ready Program and skills assessments for visa subclasses 189, 190, 491, 482, and 494.

    Can you translate an advanced diploma or associate degree?

    Yes. We translate qualifications at all levels including certificates, diplomas, advanced diplomas, and associate degrees. The translation accurately reflects the qualification level as stated on the original document.

    Do credential evaluation services like WES accept your translations?

    Yes. WES, ECE, and other NACES-member evaluation services accept our certified translations for assessing foreign diploma qualifications against US educational standards.

    My diploma is from a vocational college that no longer exists. Can you still translate it?

    Yes. We translate the document as issued regardless of the current status of the institution. If the assessing body needs verification that the institution existed, that is a separate process from the translation itself.

    How long does a diploma translation take?

    Standard delivery is 24-48 hours from when we receive your document. Same-day express is available for urgent assessment or visa deadlines.

    Should I also get my transcript translated?

    In most cases, yes. Skills assessment bodies and credential evaluators typically require both the diploma certificate and the academic transcript or record of results. We recommend ordering both translations together.

    Will the translation include the grades and specialisation on my diploma?

    Yes. We translate the complete document including the qualification title, field of study, specialisation, grades or marks, honours designations, and any endorsements or annotations appearing on the original.
