Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) ensures individuals with employment experience are given the opportunity to convert that knowledge and practical application of skills to Nationally Recognised Qualifications.
Military RPL
Due to our extensive army training and development experience during our own transition we decided to establish an RPL service for veterans and serving members of the ADF. To achieve this, we forged a professional relationship with the then College for Law, Education & Training (now CLET Training - RTO 31254). This now 10-year relationship has allowed us to assist over 1500 veterans transition with useable and relevant qualifications.

Your experience serving in the ADF (and others) may be extensive, or just commencing; You may be a current or former member. Regardless, the roles and tasks performed everyday can now be converted to Australian Nationally Recognised Qualifications.
Nationally recognised qualifications help you demonstrate to civilian employers the areas in which you have knowledge and skills. This forms a relatable link between service and civilian employment. It helps you explain your experience and understand it yourself in the civilian environment.

How it Works
The RPL process is not where you just buy a qualification.
It is a formal assessment process where recognition is provided for those who have the knowledge, skills, attitudes, previous education and training that satisfy the criteria for each unit within one or more qualifications.
We know that military personnel are well-qualified candidates for a high level of recognition towards a range of relevant qualifications. They are Nationally Recognised and may be used for employment in relevant public and private sector industries throughout Australia.
