What Is Recognition of Prior Learning?

Recognition of Prior Learning is a formal assessment process that evaluates skills, knowledge, and experience you have gained through your career against the requirements of a nationally recognised qualification.

You gather relevant workplace evidence and a qualified assessor from the delivering Registered Training Organisation evaluates that evidence. If the assessor determines every competency requirement is met, the RTO issues the qualification.

Is RPL for the Advanced Diploma of Graphic Design currently available?+
We are currently in the process of establishing partnerships with Registered Training Organisations to offer this specific qualification. While not yet open for enrolment, we are actively building the pathway to recognise your senior design expertise.
Why should I register my interest?+
Registering ensures you are the first to be notified when the pathway becomes active. It also allows us to begin understanding your experience early, ensuring a smoother transition when the formal assessment process begins.
Is recognition the same as completing the course through study?+
Yes. Recognition of Prior Learning assesses your existing evidence against the same national standards as the traditional study pathway. The resulting qualification is identical and carries equal weight in the industry.
What if my best work is under a non-disclosure agreement?+
This is common at the advanced diploma level. We can guide you on how to provide redacted evidence, third-party verification letters, or other methods to demonstrate your competency without breaching your professional obligations.
Does this qualification require management experience?+
The Advanced Diploma focuses on high-level conceptual skills and the business of design. While it often aligns with senior or lead roles, the focus is on your ability to manage design realisation and complex briefs rather than just managing people.
What does registering my interest mean?+
Registering your interest means you'd like to be notified when this qualification becomes available through RPL. There's no commitment. We'll contact you when an RTO partnership is confirmed for this qualification.
Why isn't this qualification available yet?+
RPL It works with partner RTOs to deliver qualifications. We're currently exploring RTO partnerships for this qualification. Registering your interest helps us prioritise which qualifications to focus on next.
What happens after I register my interest?+
You'll receive a confirmation, and we'll keep your details on file. When a partner RTO is confirmed for this qualification, we'll contact you with the next steps, including how to start your free skills review.
Can I still do a free skills review for this qualification?+
Yes. A free skills review helps you understand whether your experience aligns with the qualification requirements, regardless of whether an RTO partner is currently available. It's a useful first step while you wait.
