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 establishing partnerships with Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) that specialise in emergency health. By registering your interest, you will be the first to know when the RPL pathway is open for assessment.
Why should I register my interest?+
Registering helps us prioritise which qualifications we bring to market first. It also ensures you receive early access to our skills review process once we have finalised our RTO partnerships for the Diploma of Emergency Health Care.
Is RPL the same as studying the course?+
RPL is a different pathway to the same outcome. While a traditional course teaches you new skills, RPL recognises the skills you already have. The assessment standards are identical, ensuring your qualification carries the same national weight.
How do I demonstrate my clinical competency?+
Competency is demonstrated through a portfolio of evidence, which may include clinical logs, supervisor testimonials, and de-identified patient records. A qualified assessor from the RTO will review these to ensure they meet the national training standard.
What happens if I have gaps in my experience?+
If the RTO assessor identifies specific areas where your evidence is insufficient, they will provide targeted gap training. This allows you to complete only the units or components you need, rather than repeating what you already know.
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.
