Recognising your past learning and work.

Have you completed any prior learning or have any past qualifications?

You could qualify for some recognition of prior learning and reduce your workload!

As long as your experience or qualifications are contemporary and relevant to the qualification you are seeking, you may have already met the requirements for some of the assessments.

To find out, let us know you are seeking Recognition of Prior Learning and we will get you started on putting together your evidence. We will provide you with a location to upload copies of, for example, your work history, certificates, manager testimonials, or even recordings of you completing technical tasks. We will work with you to determine what the best evidence is that you have and work out where any deficiencies may lie that need to be addressed.

What is Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL)

RPL is used to reduce the amount of study or assessment that you may need to do to complete some or all the units of a qualification. It is based on your existing training, qualifications, experience, and knowledge.

RPL is evidence-based – it’s not enough to say you can do a thing, but you must be able to prove it. This proof may be your work history, courses you have done, a signed statement from a supervisor – anything you have that adds weight to your claim.

An important factor is currency. Your evidence should be less than 3 years old. If you have older material, like a training course you did 5 years ago, it would be fine if it was for work you still undertake, but no so good if you haven’t done it since then.
