Got the skills and experience? Then get the recognition.

At TAFE NSW -South Western Sydney you can fast-track your studies through Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL).

When you enrol in a TAFE NSW qualification, the skills and experience you have can be recognised for achieving a qualification. You could gain credit for your course and finish your qualification faster as you do not need to study things you already know!

Credit may be available for:

• previous study, including courses at school or college
• internal and external training programs at work
• overseas qualifications
• paid or voluntary work experience, or
• life experience

Evidence and assessment requirements

You will need to provide documentary evidence to the assessor at your local SWSi college to demonstrate that you have the knowledge and skills required to be granted credit.

Call 13 SWSi (13 7974) to speak to one of our friendly customer service staff or a SWSi Careers Counsellor for general recognition information.

For more specific advice, support and information on how to apply for recognition in courses talk to staff in teaching sections.
