- Obtaining an Australian qualification takes less time.

The RPL process is done in 3 simple steps.
The RPL pathway consists of three stages and typically takes between six and eight weeks to complete from the time an applicant applies to an RPL assessment institute.
Register / Enrolment
Step 1: During the enrolment stage, you will have to demonstrate your skill level in relation to your chosen qualification by completing a self-assessment related to the required skills and knowledge to determine the relevance of the RPL pathway.
Assessment/ Evidence Review
Step 2: The RPL assessor will give you tests in the subjects of your applied qualification to find out what skills you have and match them to the skills needed to work in the industry and for the qualification you have chosen.
You will need to provide proof of the necessary documents, photos, and videos to show that you know how each subject in your qualification.
Result
Step 3: If you meet all units of competency under the qualification, you will be issued with a Certificate and Statement of Results.
Frequently Asked Questions
Below is a list of questions that our customers often ask us. If you need more information, don't hesitate to contact Ozlinks Education now.
The RPL is generally a faster way to an Australian qualification than completing a formal training course because it recognizes your previous work experience.
Yes. The RPL evaluation process is just as thorough as any other evaluation. But the evidence you need to show may be different from what is usually asked in a class assessment.
When the criteria for each of the subjects are met, a degree may be partially or fully accredited. For example, only completed subjects can be counted towards the qualification.
Even if your credits aren't enough to qualify, you can still receive written certification of the courses you've completed.
This will depend on the complexity of your qualification, how many subjects you apply for and how long it takes you to gather proof of work experience, collate and submit proof. Usually, the RPL process is 6 to 8 weeks from the date of application to the RPL assessment institute and also depends on your industry and qualifications.
