Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) /course credit

​

Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) is a process where skills and knowledge that you have gained  through work and life experience and other unrecognised training can be formally recognised. 

Australis Vocational College has a process that has been structured to minimise the time and cost to  applicants and provides a supportive approach to learners wishing to take up this option. You should  ideally apply for RPL at the time of enrolment, but you may also apply up to 2 weeks into your course.  

​

During the entry process and interview stage Australis Vocational College will discuss with you the  process and options for RPL. Suitability is often determined on how much experience you have in a  certain area, your work history and previous training. If RPL is determined as a possibility for you, you  will be provided with a kit that will guide you in working through each unit to determine relevant skills  and experience and identify whether you would be able to provide the required evidence. A trainer/assessor will be available to assist you throughout this process.  

 

Course Credit

​

In accordance with Standards for RTO 2025, Australis Vocational College recognises qualifications issued by other RTOs. Australis Vocational College will accept and mutually recognise the qualifications and Statements of Attainment awarded by any other registered training organisation unless precluded
