Could RPL Be Right for You?

Experience can be evidence.

RPL is the process that helps you demonstrate it.

Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) is a formal assessment process that evaluates the skills, knowledge, and experience you've gained through your career to determine whether you meet the requirements of a nationally recognised qualification. It isn't a shortcut — it applies the same assessment standards as any other pathway.

RPL typically involves:

📋

A review of your work experience against the qualification requirements

💼

Compilation of an evidence portfolio demonstrating your competency

👤

Assessment by a qualified assessor from a Registered Training Organisation

🎯

If gaps are identified, targeted training to build on your existing expertise

ℹ️ Important Pathway Advice

RPL isn't the right pathway for everyone. If you don't have substantial, relevant, and current industry experience, a traditional study pathway may serve you better.

Our approach:

“We'd rather guide you to the right pathway than enrol you in the wrong one.”

📋

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about this qualification and RPL.

When will RPL for this qualification be available?
We are currently in the process of establishing partnerships with Registered Training Organisations that deliver this Advanced Diploma. We prioritise quality and compliance in our partnerships to ensure your experience is assessed with the respect it deserves.
Why should I register my interest now?
By registering your interest, you ensure that you are the first to be notified as soon as a partner RTO is ready to accept RPL applications. This allows you to begin gathering your evidence ahead of time with our guidance.
Is RPL the same as studying for the qualification?
No. RPL is an assessment-only pathway that recognises the skills you have already mastered through years of work. While the outcome—a nationally recognised qualification—is identical, the process focuses on evidence of your existing competence rather than new learning.
What happens if I have gaps in my evidence?
If the RTO's assessor identifies areas where your evidence does not fully meet the standard, you will be provided with targeted gap training. This is designed to build on your existing knowledge rather than making you start from scratch.
Does this qualification cover both mining and quarrying?
Yes, it is designed for individuals working in broad extractive industries, including coal mining, mineral exploration, and quarrying operations at a senior or strategic management level.
