The RPL toolkit has been designed to support volunteers and managers of volunteers in learning about Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) and the process involved in attaining RPL for existing competency – knowledge and skill.
Working through the information and advice included in this toolkit will make the RPL process as effortless as possible for all: volunteers, volunteer-involving organisations and Registered Training Organisations (RTOs).
This resource will take you through the steps required to:
Understand what Recognition of Prior Learning is, and its place within the Vocational Education and Training (VET) system;
Understand what competency based learning is and why it is important;
Gather the evidence required to have existing skills and knowledge recognised by RTOs through the RPL process;
Understand the types of evidence which RTOs will accept as sufficient and convincing demonstration of existing competency.
The information and templates in this toolkit are generic and can be applied to all the skill sets or ‘competencies’ within the VET system.
This toolkit is part of a range of new materials developed as part of the National Volunteer Skills Centre. So keeping checking for more great stuff.
