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.”

💼

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about this qualification and RPL.

When will RPL for this qualification be available?
We are in the process of establishing partnerships with Registered Training Organisations that specialise in senior public sector qualifications. By registering your interest, you will be the first to know when the pathway is open for assessment.
Why should I register my interest now?
Registering allows us to gauge demand and prioritise which qualifications we bring online first. It also ensures you receive direct updates as soon as an RTO partner is ready to review evidence for the Graduate Certificate in Strategic Procurement.
Is RPL the same as completing a training course?
Recognition of Prior Learning is an assessment-only pathway. It is not a course of study; rather, it is a process where a qualified assessor evaluates your existing senior-level experience against national competency standards.
What level of experience is required for a Graduate Certificate?
As an AQF level 8 qualification, the assessor will look for evidence of strategic leadership, policy integration, and high-level evaluation rather than just operational purchasing or transactional tasks.
Does this qualification apply only to the public sector?
While the qualification is from the Public Sector Training Package, the strategic procurement competencies are highly transferable to large corporate environments and non-government organisations.
