Recognition of Prior Learning
Have your existing skills and knowledge recognised towards a nationally accredited qualification.
What is RPL?
Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) is a process that allows individuals to receive formal recognition for skills and knowledge they have gained through previous education, work experience, or life experience. This can help reduce the time and cost required to complete a nationally recognised qualification.
How Does RPL Work?
Initial Discussion
Speak with our RPL assessor to discuss your experience and determine which units you may be eligible for RPL.
Gather Evidence
Compile evidence of your skills and knowledge including work references, certificates, portfolios, and other relevant documentation.
Assessment
Our qualified assessor will review your evidence against the unit requirements and may conduct an interview or practical assessment.
Outcome
You will receive formal recognition for any units where competency has been demonstrated, reducing your course load.
