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 RTO partnerships for the Certificate III in On Country Management. By registering your interest, you will be notified as soon as we have a partner ready to assess your evidence.
Why should I register my interest?
Registering your interest helps us prioritise this qualification with our partner RTOs. It also ensures you receive the latest guidance on evidence requirements and are invited to begin the process as soon as it becomes available.
Is an RPL qualification the same as one from full-time study?
Yes. A qualification achieved through Recognition of Prior Learning is identical to one earned through traditional study. It is nationally recognised and meets the same Australian Qualifications Framework standards.
Can my traditional knowledge be used as evidence?
Absolutely. This qualification specifically recognises the value of traditional management strategies. Your ability to apply cultural protocols and traditional knowledge on Country is a central part of the assessment process.
I work in a remote area; how do I provide evidence?
We understand that your work often happens in remote locations. We guide you in gathering digital evidence, such as photos of your work, videos of site inspections, and testimonials from supervisors or Elders to demonstrate your competency.
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?

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.
