RECOGNITION OF PRIOR LEARNING (RPL) AND CREDIT TRANSFER (CT)
RPL is a form of assessment that acknowledges skills and knowledge gained through:
- Formal/Informal training conducted by industry or education
- Work experience
- Life experience
The main principle of RPL focuses on the outcomes rather than when or where the learning occurred. Evidence of competency is collected by the applicant and submitted to the nominated assessor and assessment is made based on the required industry standard within the relevant training package unit of competency.
Aspen College is committed to providing up to date and relevant RPL information to all students during enrolment and whilst enrolled. Aspen College staff will provide support and guidance regarding RPL enquiries. All applicants for Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) will be provided with a copy of the relevant unit of competency and evidence requirements for the units being applied for.
Applicants who are able to provide satisfactory evidence that they have achieved the required unit of competency or competencies may progress through the course with an exemption for the RPL units.
