FIVE Steps to get your qualification?
The following are the five steps involved in obtaining a desired qualification through RPL:
  1. Evaluation: One of experienced RPL ADVISOR consultants can conduct a free, no-obligation RPL skills check.
  2. Your Experience: Compiling and submitting your ‘Experience Portfolio’, which includes photographs and videos of you on the job, references, past credentials, and your latest resume, among other things.
  3. RTO Reviews the Evidence: Using an RPL assessment, a certified assessor from one of our collaborating RTOs can review the evidence and decide whether you are competent in the units for that certification.
  4. Interview: If all supporting documents meet the requirement of the desired qualification, then the RTO may take your interview.
  5. Your Certificate: If the RTO determines that you are qualified in all relevant units of competency, the Registered Training Organisation will grant you a certificate.
