If you have the work experience, but not the qualifications we can help you gain credit for your skills through recognition of prior learning.

If you don’t have a formal qualification but have gained skills and knowledge through experience, you may be a candidate for recognition prior learning (RPL). RPL is a way to use your existing skills and knowledge to get a formal qualification.

It involves getting your current knowledge and experience assessed and takes into account other qualifications you may already have.

It means you can get a qualification without sitting in a classroom learning things you already know.

RPL Course Fee Concessions

RPL course fee concessions are available for eligible people who are seeking RPL for units of competency or for one publicly funded qualification.

RPL Course Fee Exemptions

RPL course fee exemptions are available for eligible unemployed people for units of competency or for one publicly funded qualification.

If you are unemployed you could qualify for a RPL course fee exemption as part of the State Government’s $47 million training package.

If you are a job seeker, receive Newstart (NS) or Youth Allowance (YA) payments you could be eligible for training in one of more than 200 locations across Western Australia.

You will need to provide evidence of your eligibility to the training provider.

If you think you may be eligible but do not have any proof of receipt of unemployment benefits or job seeker status, contact your local Centrelink or Job Services Australia office.
