Recognition of Prior Learning and Recognition of Current Competency (RPL/RCC) for TAA
AIWT is committed to acknowledging the value
of skills gained through
informal and formal learning, as well as previous work experience.
To that end, we offer RPL/RCC for those wishing to be exempted
from their units. If this is applicable, students are required
to arrange a portfolio containing evidence of past experiences.
Evidence can include:
· Previous Certificates or Statements of Attainment
· Letters from employers
· Work history
· Community or volunteer work
· Personal experiences
All of this evidence will be assessed by our training staff, and students will
also be required to complete an RPL/RCC skills book. After this book is
completed, students will be informed of their assessment status, and will be
required to complete any units that did not meet the required level of
competency.
COST
$1100.00 which must be paid prior to course commencement. This is for the TAA upgrade and RPL/RCC
