Quick answer
What is cdr review & plagiarism check?
A CDR review is an independent check of a report you have already written, against the MSA booklet rules and the Stage 1 competency standard, before you pay a non-refundable assessment fee. It includes a professional plagiarism scan and a written report naming every gap and how to close it.
Why a review is the cheapest thing you will buy
The Engineers Australia assessment fee is not refunded on a negative outcome. Neither is the time — a resubmission cycle typically costs months, which for many applicants means an English test expiring, an age bracket closing, or an EOI running out.
A review costs a fraction of that and catches the failures that cause most negatives: plagiarism matches you did not know about, missing competency elements, references that do not hold up, and episodes that describe a project instead of an engineer.
What we check
| Area | Checked for |
|---|---|
| Compliance | Word count, four-part structure, continuous paragraph numbering, first-person voice, three-page CV |
| Originality | Professional text-matching scan against published sources and known sample archives |
| Competency coverage | Every element in your category evidenced at least once, and reasonably distributed |
| Reference integrity | Every summary statement citation verified against the paragraph it points at |
| Engineering substance | Whether each episode shows analysis, design and decision-making — or only description |
| Occupation fit | Whether the episodes actually describe the ANZSCO code you nominated |
| Consistency | Whether episodes, CV and employment references tell the same story |
What you get back
A written report, not a marked-up file with vague comments. Each finding names the location, the problem and the specific fix, ordered by how likely it is to cost you the assessment. If we think the report is ready, we say so plainly — we do not manufacture findings to justify an upsell.
If the review shows the report needs more than editing, we will tell you that too, and you can put the review fee towards a full rewrite.

CDR Review & Plagiarism Check — frequently asked questions
How much does a CDR review cost?
AUD 249, which includes the MSA compliance check, competency gap audit, reference verification, a professional plagiarism report and one follow-up review after you make the changes.
How long does a CDR review take?
Seventeen days on the standard tier, ten or seven days on the faster tiers. The review itself is identical at every tier — the shorter turnarounds buy priority in the queue.
Will you tell me if my CDR is already good enough?
Yes. If the report meets the standard we say so and the review ends there. We do not invent findings to sell a rewrite.
Does the review include a plagiarism report?
Yes — a professional text-matching scan with the full similarity report, so you can see exactly which passages match and where.
