What Is Recognition of Prior Learning?
Recognition of Prior Learning is a formal assessment process that evaluates skills, knowledge, and experience you have gained through your career against the requirements of a nationally recognised qualification.
You gather relevant workplace evidence and a qualified assessor from the delivering Registered Training Organisation evaluates that evidence. If the assessor determines every competency requirement is met, the RTO issues the qualification.

When will RPL for the Certificate IV in Aeroskills (Armament) be available?
We are currently in the exploratory phase, identifying Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) with the specific scope and expertise required for this Aeroskills stream. Availability depends on securing a partner who respects the depth of ADF experience.
Why should I register my interest now?
Registering allows us to demonstrate demand to our RTO partners, which can accelerate the development of the RPL pathway. It also ensures you are the first to know when we can begin guiding candidates through the evidence process.
Is RPL the same as completing the RAAF armament course?
RPL is a process of recognising the skills you have already gained through that course and subsequent on-the-job experience. It translates your ADF expertise into a civilian-recognised qualification without requiring you to repeat training.
Does this qualification include explosive ordnance units?
This qualification focuses on the maintenance of aircraft systems. While it includes five units for safe handling of explosive ordnance related to egress and fire systems, broader explosive ordnance units are typically held within the DEF or TLI training packages.
How do I demonstrate my experience if my work was classified?
Our RTO partners are familiar with the sensitivities of ADF work. We guide you in providing redacted or high-level evidence, such as PMKeyS records and supervisor verifications, that demonstrate competency without compromising security.
What does registering my interest mean?
Registering your interest means you'd like to be notified when this qualification becomes available through RPL. There's no commitment. We'll contact you when an RTO partnership is confirmed for this qualification.
Why isn't this qualification available yet?
RPL It works with partner RTOs to deliver qualifications. We're currently exploring RTO partnerships for this qualification. Registering your interest helps us prioritise which qualifications to focus on next.
What happens after I register my interest?
You'll receive a confirmation, and we'll keep your details on file. When a partner RTO is confirmed for this qualification, we'll contact you with the next steps, including how to start your free skills review.
Can I still do a free skills review for this qualification?
Yes. A free skills review helps you understand whether your experience aligns with the qualification requirements, regardless of whether an RTO partner is currently available. It's a useful first step while you wait.
