Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) is an Australian skills assessment that identifies and validates an individual's skills, knowledge, and experience to award an Australian qualification without requiring further study or exams. The Australian qualification can help with employment opportunities in Australia, New Zealand, or other developed countries and has the same recognition as a qualification earned through full-time study in Australia. Applicants submit documents providing evidence of their work experience and competencies for an online interview with an Australian assessor to potentially earn an internationally recognized Australian certificate.
