Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) & Credit Transfers

Recognition of Prior Learning

Recognition of prior learning, also referred to as RPL, is the formal acknowledgement of a person's current skills and knowledge no matter how, when or where the learning occurred. The recognition gained may considerably reduce the study time needed to get a qualification and is an assessment only pathway. The RPL assessment may include a combination of workplace observation, interviews and professional conversations, work samples and documented evidence. To find out about your eligibility, speak with one of our qualified trainers about your options.

Credit Transfers

If you have completed a unit of competency in previous training, you may be eligible for a Credit Transfer. As part of our enrolment process, you will be asked to provide evidence of any Credit Transfers you may have. Before resulting, we will authenticate your previous qualifications and transcripts.
