Recognition of prior learning (RPL) is a process of assessing and granting credit (towards a unit/subject) for students, based on their skills,
knowledge and experience gain in the workforce and via previous learning.
If you have a high level of experience in your proposed field of study, and believe that you can prove a certain level of sound knowledge
and competency in that field, you can have your knowledge assessed, through the RPL process, to provide you with credits against your studies.
