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 partnerships with Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) who can deliver this specific aviation qualification. By registering your interest, you will be the first to know when the pathway is open for enrolment.
Why should I register my interest?+
Registering ensures you receive priority notification once an RTO partner is secured. It also allows us to provide early guidance on the types of evidence you should begin gathering from your flight history.
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 issued by a Registered Training Organisation and meets the same Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF) standards.
How does this Diploma relate to my CASA Commercial Pilot Licence?+
The Diploma of Aviation (AVI50222) provides the educational framework and units of competency required for a CPL. However, CASA retains the authority for issuing the actual flight crew licence based on their Part 61 regulations, including flight tests and medical requirements.
Can military flight experience be used for RPL?+
Absolutely. Military flight crew experience is a valid form of evidence. We can guide you in presenting your Defence aviation records and training history in a format that aligns with the civilian units of competency required for this Diploma.
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.
