Helping people call Australia home

When Youssef Haddad found himself at a crossroads in life, he decided to pursue a career assisting others – and he hasn't looked back.

"For most of my working career I was focused on business or employment which were considered primarily profit driven. I needed to make some big decisions in my life and knew that my next career move would be to serve humanity.

VU’s Graduate Diploma in Migration Law is highly regarded in the industry because of the clever course structure and the extensive experience of the staff. The timetable and teaching mode is optional – you can choose either face-to-face or online – but I found the classroom interaction in an intensive course really beneficial, while others work more effectively in the online space.

Due to my success in the course and the connections I'd made with other students, my first clients were referred via word of mouth from classmates.

It was this word of mouth and an astute business mind that helped me to establish my firm, Immigration Law Matters Pty Ltd, and gain a strong agent network around the world.

Being a registered migration agent, and now running my own business, my clients become my family. I work intimately with them to build their cases for migration success.”
