Question Commercial pilot studies - Perth, Australia

Ok, so I'm a recently qualified ppl. I'm yearning to continue my studies and progress to qualify as a professional pilot ..... Problem is I plan to emigrate to Perth, Australia within the next six months. Do I start ATPL studies now? Or should I wait to research other commercial (professional pilot earning) options when I get over there? Can I being studies for their commercial course here and then just take the exams as soon as I get over there?..... Has anyone else done this before? And are there any good training establishments at Jandakot Airport? ..... Can anyone give any handy recommendations as to what to expect training structure wise?

I would not start my studies before moving out to Perth.
The exam structure in Australia is different and the exams can be self studied.
Look at converting your PPL to an Australian PPL and getting everything else you need, like an ASIC.
I would suggest you pop in an see Min Stokes at Minovation.
Small organisation with good customer service from my experience.
PM me of you need anything else.
