Recognition of Prior Learning<br />
(RPL)<br />
At Metropolitan South Institute of TAFE<br />
we underst<strong>and</strong> that you may already have<br />
developed many valuable skills through<br />
previous work or study. The RPL process<br />
enables the skills you have learned in the<br />
workplace <strong>and</strong> through life experience to<br />
be recognised formally, regardless of how,<br />
when or where the learning occurred.<br />
RPL also covers credit transfers <strong>and</strong><br />
exemptions. A credit transfer is a credit<br />
for competency in an equivalent module<br />
already completed at a TAFE Queensl<strong>and</strong><br />
institute <strong>and</strong> may be automatically<br />
granted during the enrolment process.<br />
An exemption is credit for previous study<br />
completed outside of TAFE Queensl<strong>and</strong>.<br />
Exemptions must be applied for using an<br />
Application for Advanced St<strong>and</strong>ing form,<br />
available from Metropolitan South TAFE’s<br />
customer service centres.<br />
