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 this qualification be available?
We are currently in the process of vetting RTO partners to ensure they meet our standards for the ESI sector. By registering your interest, you will be the first to know when we open the pathway for this specific mechanical maintenance qualification.
Why should I register my interest now?
Registering allows us to assess the demand for ESI Generation Maintenance recognition. It also ensures you receive priority notification once an RTO partnership is secured, allowing you to begin the evidence gathering process immediately.
Is RPL the same as completing a training course?
No. RPL is an assessment-only pathway that recognises the skills you have already developed on the job. Instead of attending classes to learn new things, you provide evidence to a qualified assessor to prove you already meet the national standard.
Will I need to demonstrate machining skills for this qualification?
Yes, as this is a mechanical stream, core units include machining, lathe operations, and milling. If your experience is primarily in maintenance and you lack these specific machining competencies, we will guide you on how to address those gaps.
What happens if I have experience but no formal paperwork?
Our role as your guide is to help you translate your daily work into formal evidence. We can assist you in identifying third-party reports, work logs, and photographic evidence that can demonstrate your competency to an assessor.
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.
