Recognition of Prior Learning
Recognition of prior learning (RPL) is an assessment process that acknowledges skills and knowledge acquired through formal, non-formal, or informal learning. This pathway allows students to gain recognition for competencies they have already developed, potentially leading to the awarding of a unit of competency or qualification without additional training.

To apply for RPL, please contact our Student Services Team. They will assess the student’s suitability and discuss the process before sending an application kit.
