Credit Transfers & Recognition of Prior Learning
We recognise qualifications and Statements of Attainment issued by other Registered Training Organisations. A certified copy of a Diploma, Certificate (and associated Statement of Result) or Statement of Attainment must be submitted to administration.
We shall also assess a previously completed course or subject to see if it provides equivalent learning or competency outcomes to those required within the learner’s current program. To read more and fill out your courses Credit Transfer application form, visit Student Resources.
Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) is an assessment process that assesses an individual’s formal and informal learning to determine the extent to which they have achieved the required competency outcomes.
It involves collecting evidence and making judgements on whether competence has been achieved. RPL is available to all learners. Fill out the RPL Application Form for your course at Student Resources.
The RPL process may suit you if you have:
- Work skills and knowledge
- Paid or unpaid work experience
- Life experience
- Formal training or education
