Recognition of Prior Learning
Turn Your Experience Into Recognition
RPL considers your existing skills, knowledge and experience against the requirements of a nationally recognised qualification. Outcomes depend on assessment evidence and demonstrated competency.
The process

A structured assessment process designed to identify what you can already demonstrate and where further evidence or training may be needed.

How assessment works
Types of evidence
Evidence may include work samples, records, references, demonstrations and professional conversations.
Competency assessment
A qualified assessor reviews evidence against the relevant requirements.
Gap identification
If evidence does not yet address all requirements, the assessor identifies what remains.
Further evidence or training
Additional evidence, learning or assessment may be needed before reassessment.
Outcome
A qualification or Statement of Attainment is issued only where applicable requirements are satisfied.
If a gap is identified
Additional evidence or training may be recommended, followed by reassessment. An initial conversation can help you understand the process, but it does not guarantee an outcome.
