Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) is where your prior experience can be assessed via multiple means, including your past qualifications and experience, through interviewing and verbal or written questionnaires, an evidence portfolio, practical demonstration of your skills, and talking with your recent supervisors to confirm your skills. Any evidence you provide can be useful and will help determine the result of your RPL application. Once assessed, any relevant skills and qualifications can count as credit towards your studies with Contal Training Services.
