SUMMARY:August FNQ DAMA Information Session for FNQ Employers
DESCRIPTION:Cairns Chamber of Commerce Migration Manager Geoff Heath invites FNQ Employers to this free\, in-person information session on the Far North Queensland Designated Area Migration Agreement\, otherwise known as the FNQ DAMA. \n\n\n\nThe FNQ DAMA is a skilled migration program that is tailored to meet the unique workforce needs of Far North Queensland. It differs in many ways from standard skilled migration pathways – offering a greater range of occupations determined by local demand\, along with various concessions – providing more flexibility and certainty for both employers and employees. \n\n\n\nFor over six years\, the FNQ DAMA has been assisting business owners to access overseas workers and address critical skill shortages\, where positions cannot be filled from the Australian labour market. \n\n\n\nIn this information session\, Geoff will: \n\n\n\n\nDe-mystify the FNQ DAMA and unpack how it can work for your business\n\n\n\nDiscuss the Occupations and Concessions List\n\n\n\nExplain how to prepare a Request for Endorsement\, including the steps you need to take and information you need to provide\n\n\n\nAnswer your questions in an open Q&A forum\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nWHEN: Wednesday 5th August 2026TIME: 10.00am – 11.00am (please arrive 5 minutes before the session is set to commence)WHERE: Cairns Chamber of Commerce Office\, Mezzanine Level\, The Pier Shopping Centre\, Pier Point Road\, Cairns QLD 4870PARKING: The Pier Shopping Centre offers FREE underground car parking for 2hours \n\n\n\nPlease note: Due to the limited capacity of the Cairns Chamber of Commerce boardroom\, attendance at these information sessions is strictly capped. If you have registered but are no longer able to attend\, we kindly ask that you notify Danielle as soon as possible by emailing executiveservices@cairnschamber.com.au to update your availability.
