RPL is a process that assesses your existing skills, knowledge and experience, gained through work, volunteering or life activities, to determine if they meet the requirements for a formal qualification. This allows you to earn a certification without undergoing redundant training.

The RPL process typically involves:

• Initial consultation: discuss your experience and goals with an RPL advisor.
• Evidence collection: gather documents such as resumes, job descriptions, references and work samples that demonstrate your competencies.
• Assessment: an assessor evaluates your evidence against the qualification's requirements.
• Outcome: if your evidence meets the criteria, you receive the qualification. If gaps are identified, additional training may be recommended.

Acceptable evidence includes:

• Detailed resumes or CVs
• Job descriptions and employment contracts
• References or testimonials from employers or colleagues
• Work samples, reports or projects
• Certificates from previous training or courses
• Awards or recognitions

The evidence must be valid, authentic, current and sufficient to demonstrate your competencies.

The duration varies based on the complexity of the qualification and the completeness of your evidence. Generally, the process can take from a few weeks to a couple of months. Providing thorough and well-organised evidence can speed up the assessment.

• Time efficiency: avoids repeating learning for skills you already possess.
• Cost savings: reduces expenses associated with traditional training.
• Career advancement: formal recognition of your skills can enhance job prospects and eligibility for promotions.
• Personal satisfaction: validates your experience and achievements.
