What is the Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL)?

RPL can be used to assess learning that has been gained through any sort of formal, informal and nonformal means in Australia or overseas. In order to be eligible for RPL, you must be able to provide proof that you have the knowledge and skills that are equivalent to those required for the Nationally Recognised Qualification (NRQ) that you are seeking.

Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) is an assessment process that allows you to have your prior knowledge and learning outcomes assessed and recognised by a Recognised Training Organisation (RTO). RPL offers an opportunity for you to gain formal recognition equivalent to learning outcomes of Australian Qualifications with regard to your previously acquired knowledge and experience, enabling you to track your educational and career progression.

The RPL Assessment must be:

  • Affirmed by an Academic Staff of an RTO who has proficiency in specific subject content, knowledge and skills.
  • Be provided with authentic & sufficient prior learning proof to validate and verify their experience.
  • Able to recognise the knowledge despite of how, when and where it was obtained.
