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 this qualification currently available through RPL it?
We are currently in the process of establishing partnerships with Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) for this specific qualification. While not yet active, we are working to ensure a robust assessment pathway is available soon.
Why should I register my interest?
Registering your interest allows us to notify you the moment a partner RTO is ready to accept applications. It also helps us prioritise which qualifications to bring online based on the needs of experienced professionals like yourself.
Is RPL the same as studying for the qualification?
No. Recognition of Prior Learning is an assessment-only pathway that acknowledges the skills you have already developed. It focuses on evidence of your existing competence rather than requiring you to repeat training for things you already know.
What kind of experience is relevant for this qualification?
Experience gained in the Australian Defence Force, industrial first aid roles, or as a first responder in community health organisations is highly relevant for demonstrating competency in basic health care.
How do I prove my skills if I don't have formal documents?
While documents like resumes and reports are vital, your consultant will guide you on using alternative evidence such as third-party testimonials, statutory declarations, or practical demonstrations requested by the assessor.
Will I need to complete any training?
If the RTO's assessor identifies specific units where your evidence is not yet sufficient, they may provide targeted gap training. This ensures you meet the national standard without needing to redo the entire qualification.
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.
