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 via RPL?+
We are currently in the process of establishing partnerships with Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) that can deliver the CPC50620 Diploma of Hydraulic Services Design. At this stage, we are accepting registrations of interest rather than active enrolments.
Why should I register my interest?+
Registering your interest helps us gauge demand and prioritise our RTO partnerships. You will be the first to be notified as soon as a recognition pathway becomes available for this specific qualification.
Is RPL the same as completing a course?+
No. Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) is an assessment process that recognises the skills and knowledge you have already gained through work and life experience. It is a pathway to the same nationally recognised qualification as study, but it focuses on evidence of existing competency.
What are the entry requirements for this Diploma?+
To be eligible for assessment in this qualification, you must have completed either the CPC40920 Certificate IV in Plumbing and Services or the CPC40912 equivalent, including specific units regarding regulatory requirements.
Does this qualification grant a plumbing licence?+
No. This qualification reflects the role of a specialist hydraulic design consultant. It does not meet the competency requirements for plumbing licensing or registration in any Australian state or territory.
How do I demonstrate design competency?+
Competency is demonstrated through a portfolio of evidence that includes real-world design projects, technical calculations, and documentation that shows you can design complex hydraulic systems in a professional context.
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.
