Recognition and Credit for Prior Learning
If you have completed relevant prior study, training and/or industry experience you may not need to enrol in the full duration of your program.
To gain Recognition for Prior Learning (RPL) we need to assess evidence of previous learning, employment, industry activities and talents. The evidence must be authenticated (academic transcripts, subject outlines, references, awards), which we then compare to the subjects in your preferred program at AIT. If there is sufficient verifiable evidence you have attained all of the subject learning outcomes you may be granted credit for a subject or Unit of Competency. You apply for RPL during the application process for the program of your choice.
Student work: James Gultiano.
