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.

Is RPL currently available for this Graduate Diploma?+
We are currently in the exploratory phase, gauging demand and seeking Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) with the appropriate scope to deliver this high-level qualification through recognition of prior learning.
Why should I register my interest?+
Registering your interest helps us demonstrate the need for an RPL pathway to our RTO partners. It also ensures you are the first to be notified when a formal assessment process is established.
Is RPL for a Graduate Diploma the same as studying for one?+
The qualification issued is identical. The difference lies in the evidence: RPL assesses the expertise you have already developed in the field, while study focuses on teaching you new skills. Both must meet the same national standards.
What are the entry requirements for this qualification?+
Entry requires an undergraduate degree in a related field such as Law, Psychology, or Social Work, or accreditation under the National Mediator Accreditation System (NMAS), or significant documented experience in a self-directed dispute resolution role.
How do I prove I meet the 50-hour work requirement?+
For an RPL pathway, you would typically provide verified logs, case records, or third-party reports from your current or previous professional practice that demonstrate at least 50 hours of work in a family dispute resolution context.
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.
