About This Qualification

This qualification reflects the role of construction waterproofing design and survey specialists who apply knowledge of construction methods, compliance requirements and materials to implement waterproofing services for professional and statutory requirements. The scope of work undertaken varies across jurisdictions and can include: conducting waterproofing inspections:at point of constructionon existing building to identify issues and remediation requirementsdesigning waterproofing for new constructiondesigning remedial waterproofing solutions for existing buildings. Waterproofing specialists require an understanding of relevant compliance requirements as well as of traditional, new and emerging construction methods and materials. They make a significant contribution to the development and construction of the built environment, often working in collaboration with other specialist consultants to assess and verify that proposed and actual building works are compliant and to ensure the safety of building occupants in support of principal designer and principal certifier. Legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to waterproofing as a regulated design in some states and territories. Relevant state and territory regulatory authorities should be consulted to confirm those requirements.

Could RPL Be Right for You?

Experience can be evidence.

RPL is the process that helps you demonstrate it.

Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) is a formal assessment process that evaluates the skills, knowledge, and experience you've gained through your career to determine whether you meet the requirements of a nationally recognised qualification. It isn't a shortcut — it applies the same assessment standards as any other pathway.

RPL typically involves:

📋

A review of your work experience against the qualification requirements

💼

Compilation of an evidence portfolio demonstrating your competency

👤

Assessment by a qualified assessor from a Registered Training Organisation

🎯

If gaps are identified, targeted training to build on your existing expertise

ℹ️ Important Pathway Advice

RPL isn't the right pathway for everyone. If you don't have substantial, relevant, and current industry experience, a traditional study pathway may serve you better.

Our approach:

“We'd rather guide you to the right pathway than enrol you in the wrong one.”

📋

Work History & Roles

  • Detailed CV and position descriptions

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about this qualification and RPL.

When will this qualification be available for RPL?
We are currently in the process of establishing partnerships with Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) that have this qualification on their scope. Registering your interest ensures you are the first to know when the pathway opens.
Why should I register my interest now?
Registering allows us to gauge market demand and prioritise this qualification with our RTO partners. It also puts you at the front of the queue for a free skills review once the service is active.
Is RPL the same as doing the course?
The outcome is identical; you receive the same nationally recognised qualification. The difference is the pathway—RPL assesses the evidence of what you already know rather than requiring you to study it again.
Do I need to be a licensed builder to apply?
No, but you must demonstrate significant experience in construction waterproofing design, surveying, or remedial consultancy to meet the assessment standards.
What if my experience is primarily in remedial work?
Remedial expertise is highly relevant. The qualification covers both new construction and remediation, so your experience in moisture ingress diagnostics and scope development is vital evidence.
Will this help with Design Practitioner registration?
In jurisdictions like NSW, this Diploma is a key component of the criteria for registration as a Design Practitioner. We recommend checking with your local authority for specific registration requirements.
