RPL Qualifications

Is the RPL qualification recognised in Australia?

The RPL process considers all relevant skills, knowledge and experience that you have. We use these to assess your competency for each unit in your chosen qualification. Through the process, you may be able to gain a complete qualification or specific units. If you need to, you can complete the rest of the qualification through training at a registered training organisation (RTO).

What is a Registered Training Organization RTO?

Registered Training Organizations (RTOs) in Australia are organisations that provide Vocational Education and Training (VET) courses to students. They are the only organisations in the Australian VET system authorised to deliver and assess nationally recognised training. To deliver this training, it needs to be approved by the Australian Skills Quality Authority (ASQA).

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.

Why should you consider RPL?

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.
