American looking at visa options

Hello all,
I am a US national who is currently finishing her MA in Scotland.  Right now I am looking at what options are available for me in Australia.  I believe I saw a one year working vacation type one.  What are the requirements for that and what are the requirements for a work visa there.  I also believe that there are youth mobility schemes in place there as well.  I am 26.  And details on that would also be useful.  In addition to 3  degrees I also have about 14 years of work experience. 

Also as far as education goes what student visas and funded education programs are available?  Thank you for any advice that you can give.

Oh hi! I just closed the site where one can do a visa wizard under www.immi.gov.au to choose for the right visa. Try that and it might help you!
