RPL is an assessment-only pathway and is suitable for you if you have existing skills and knowledge.

If you decide to proceed with a RPL application you will be required to gather evidence which proves your competence. 

The evidence must be current, valid and confirm that you have shown competence over a period of time and can work under different conditions.

Note: RPL assessment process is as rigorous as any other assessment. However, the type of evidence that you need to provide may be different from normal class assessments.  Importantly though, the RPL process is flexible and streamlined. You and your assessor will discuss and determine the evidence you can provide.

 

Please refer to the RPL information pack (pdf, 530KB) for more detailed information.  

To identify whether you have existing skills and knowledge, against the requirements of the training package you must look over the performance standards described within the units.
