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.

When will this qualification be available for RPL?+
We are currently auditing Registered Training Organisations to ensure they have the specialised facilities and qualified assessors required for this industrial electrical trade.
Why should I register my interest now?+
Registering ensures you are prioritised for a free skills review once the assessment pathway is live. It also helps us gauge demand to expedite RTO partnership agreements.
Is RPL the same as completing a standard apprenticeship?+
Recognition of Prior Learning assesses your existing expertise against the same national standards as an apprenticeship, resulting in the same nationally recognised qualification.
Will I need to complete a capstone assessment?+
Yes. As this is a licensed trade qualification, a formal capstone assessment is a mandatory requirement to demonstrate your Essential Performance Capabilities to the assessor.
What happens if the assessor identifies gaps in my evidence?+
If your evidence doesn't fully cover specific units, the RTO will provide targeted gap training. This builds on your existing knowledge rather than requiring you to start from scratch.
Does this qualification guarantee me an Electrician's Licence?+
The qualification is a critical prerequisite for licensing, but you must still meet the specific fit-and-proper and experience requirements set by your state's electrical regulator.
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.
