RPL

Recognition of prior learning is a process where a person with work experience, can have their skills and knowledge assessed, with the aim of getting a formal qualification

• Do I have experience based on volunteer work?
• Can I demonstrate the skill to someone?
• Do I have Formal or non-formal training in this field?
• Can I provide some kind of evidence to support my claim?
• Paid or un-paid work experience

If you answer YES to any of the questions above you may be eligible for Recognition of Prior Learning.

Yes you can. Contact us on (03) 9357 9119 or email info@taf.edu.au .We will organize a pre-assessment interview either by phone or a face to face meeting to guide you through the process.

The duration of RPL process will depend on the number of units and the time you can devote to the process.Your assessor will develop an RPL assessment plan and schedule based on your needs.

For a full qualification generally takes between 1 to 3 months for an applicant to complete the process.

While in many cases you will be able to demonstrate or provide evidence to gain full competence, in some cases your assessor may determine there is a gap between what you know and what is covered in a unit or qualification. In this case, TAF can provide you with an opportunity to undertake training to ensure that your RPL application is successful. This is called gap training. If gap training is required, your RPL Assessor will assist you to identify what it might involve.
