FNS60822 is the nationally recognised Advanced Diploma behind internal auditor work. It has been the current version on the national register since 2022, when it replaced FNS60820. About 638 internal auditor jobs were advertised in June 2026, up 0.3% on a year earlier.
The signals behind this qualification are mixed, and both sides are worth weighing. Specifically: its main occupation is rated in national shortage, employment in its occupations is projected to grow through 2035 and national enrolments are falling. These are official statistics, not a promise about any individual's result.
Employer demand for these roles is holding steady. Across Internal Auditor, about 638 jobs were advertised online in June 2026 (up 0.3% on a year earlier). Roughly 7,313 openings were advertised over the last 12 months, while 5 people enrolled in the qualification nationally in 2023. Enrolment counts people in training, not completions, so the two figures describe the pipeline and the market, not a job guarantee.
At least one occupation this qualification leads to is officially rated as in national shortage. In the 2025 Occupation Shortage List assessment, External Auditor is rated in national shortage; Company Secretary, Corporate Treasurer and Internal Auditor are rated not in shortage.
Employment in these occupations is projected to grow. Government projections put them at 31,500 workers in May 2025, 34,100 by May 2030 (up 8%) and 36,600 by May 2035 (up 15.9%).
Enrolments in this qualification are falling sharply. National enrolments fell from 5 in 2023, the first year it appears in national data, to 0 in 2024 (down 100%).
The register and the national framework set some of this. Providers set the rest.
