Recognition Of Prior Learning
Individuals may receive credit for their knowledge and skills through recognition of prior learning (RPL) upon completion of the RPL process. 
The process will involve an initial meeting with an assessor to discuss your needs. Fees may be applicable for this service. You will then be required to gather your evidence; enrol into the class/es and submit your application for assessment.

Assessment may include skills and achievements from:
• Work experience (paid and unpaid)
• Life experience (for example leisure pursuits or voluntary work)
• Previous study (formal or informal training and education, for example industry training, school, college or adult education classes)

In order to grant RPL, an assessor must be confident that candidates are currently competent. Evidence used for assessment may take a variety of forms and could include certification, references from past employers, work samples, testimonials from clients and challenge testing.

For additional information relating to RPL for this program, please contact the RPL Coordinator on 07 3244 5386 or email sbit.rplcoordinator@deta.qld.gov.au
