What Is Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL)?
Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) is a formal assessment process that allows community service workers to convert their existing experience, skills, and knowledge into a nationally recognised qualification. It’s a way to have your professional expertise validated without having to undergo the full study and training typically required for formal certification.
How Does RPL Work?
The RPL process evaluates the experience you’ve accumulated over your career—whether through paid work, volunteer work, or even life experience—against the competencies required for a specific qualification. If you meet the required standards, you can be awarded a qualification without the need for further study or training.

Our team will work with you to determine which qualification best matches your skills, experience and career goals. Together, you’ll explore the roles you’ve held and the tasks you’ve performed to identify the most suitable qualification for you.
2. Evidence Submission
You’ll work with your portfolio specialist to compile evidence to showcase your experience, such as your resume, reference letters, work/employment contracts, etc. This evidence will demonstrate the skills you’ve developed throughout your career, making your application as seamless as possible.
