The RPL process
How RPL works at S2C
Recognition of Prior Learning assesses the skills and experience you already have against the units of a nationally recognised qualification. Where there are gaps, you only complete the training you need.
1
Free skills check
Tell us about your roles, experience and training. It takes a few minutes.
2
Talk to a course advisor
We confirm the qualification that fits, entry requirements, fees and payment options.
3
Register and gather evidence
Upload your evidence in the Learner Portal, with guidance on what each unit needs.
4
Assessment
An assessor reviews your evidence and may hold a competency conversation or contact your referees.
5
Your outcome
Your qualification or statement of attainment is issued once you're assessed as competent. Any gaps are closed with training.
RPL outcomes depend on an individual assessment of your evidence.

What our graduates say
What really stood out was their thoroughness. They carefully reviewed my background, asked the right questions to draw out relevant experience, and ensured that nothing was overlooked. Their attention to detail gave me complete confidence that my application was comprehensive and accurately reflected my skills and career history.
Shane P

The communication throughout the process was excellent - responsive, supportive, and proactive. Any questions I had were answered promptly, and I always felt informed about where my application was at.
Paul K

The whole process just seemed efficient, professional and stress-free, despite the level of detail involved. Communication from the team was great and they took the time to explain everything clearly.
