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 RPL for the Certificate III in Racing (Greyhound) be available?+
We are currently in the process of identifying and partnering with Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) that specialise in the RGR training package. By registering your interest, you will be the first to know when a formal assessment pathway is established.
Why should I register my interest now?+
Registering allows us to gauge industry demand and expedite the partnership process with relevant RTOs. It also ensures you receive early guidance on gathering your evidence, making the eventual assessment process smoother.
Is RPL the same as completing a greyhound racing course?+
RPL focuses on the recognition of the skills you already possess rather than teaching you new ones. While the qualification issued is the same as one earned through study, the process involves a qualified assessor evaluating your existing evidence to determine competency.
Does this qualification cover greyhound rehoming and welfare?+
Yes, the core units of this qualification focus heavily on the health, welfare, and ethical rehoming of greyhounds. Your experience in these areas is vital evidence for the assessment process.
I have been an owner-trainer for years; does that count?+
Your experience as a licensed owner-trainer is highly relevant. The skills you have developed in handling, nutrition, and trial preparation align directly with several units in the Certificate III in Racing (Greyhound).
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.
