RPL-Only Self-Assessment Checklist

Would you prefer to just have a chat?

How about you give us a call and we can talk it through. Actually, you’ll talk to me (I’m Bryan) – I’m the one who will be your Trainer if we decide it’s a good fit, so you can be confident you won’t just have to endure some sales pitch from someone who won’t be directly involved with your course.

About This Document

If you are a professional trainer/assessor and you are serious about your future career prospects, then it is a wise move to have recognised your current competency. With the publication of the TAE10 & TAE16 Training & Education Training Packages comes the opportunity to gain recognition in two discrete, yet equally important, areas of training.

This document will introduce you to both of these qualifications. It will then help you discover if you could gain one or both of the Diploma qualifications through RPL.

The Three Steps to Success

We know that RPL can be a tiresome process. That is why we have developed a process that makes it very clear what you need to do. Follow three steps to progress with both confidence and certainty.

/ Complete the tables on the following pages to see which units you are likely to have sufficient evidence for.
/ Check if you are likely to have sufficient evidence for enough units to complete the full Dip VET or Dual Dip VET/TDD via RPL.
/ If you are confident that you can provide the required evidence, then you are invited to enrol in the RPL Only Dip VET/TDD program. If you are not certain about your RPL eligibility, then the Standard Diploma program will be more suitable
