Exemption from Units
Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) is a form of assessment that acknowledges skills and knowledge gained through:
- Formal training by industry or education
- Work experience
- Life experience;
and measures this knowledge and experiences against the mandatory learning outcome/performance criteria in a specific unit of a course.
Skills recognition may only be given for whole units of competencies. You can only exempt from a whole unit/units of competency.
International students who successfully gain skills recognition may be required to undertake alternative units to ensure that they maintain a full-time workload.
