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 the Diploma of Aquaculture be available for RPL?
We are currently in the process of vetting Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) that meet our standards for the Seafood Industry training package. By registering your interest, you will be the first to know when this pathway is active.
Why should I register my interest?
Registering allows us to gauge industry demand and prioritise which RTO partnerships we establish. It also ensures you receive a preliminary review of your experience so you are ready to begin as soon as the qualification is available.
Is RPL the same as studying the Diploma?
The qualification issued is identical. The difference lies in the evidence: study requires you to learn new content, while RPL requires you to demonstrate that you already possess the competency through your professional history.
What if my experience is in a specialist consultancy role?
The Diploma of Aquaculture is designed to recognise expertise across various environments, including hatcheries, wholesalers, and consultancy services. We will help you map your specific experience against the national standards.
Will I need to provide evidence of sustainability planning?
Yes, as sustainable practices are a core component of this qualification. We will guide you in gathering evidence such as environmental impact plans or sustainability audits you have designed or implemented.
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.
