Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL)
What is RPL?
RPL is an assessment process that evaluates your existing skills, knowledge, and experience against the competencies of a unit or qualification.
You may apply for RPL for a single unit, multiple units, or even an entire qualification, depending on your experience or prior learning.
RPL is not a traditional learning pathway – candidates must demonstrate their competency by providing sufficient evidence. No additional training or learning materials are provided as part of the RPL process.
What is involved?
To achieve a successful RPL outcome, you must demonstrate that you meet all the required skills and knowledge for the unit(s) you’re applying for. Candidates will receive an RPL kit that has been developed to guide students through the process of gathering evidence and demonstrating their competency in the required units of the BSB41419 qualification. It provides clear instructions on the types of evidence that can be submitted and the level of competency required to meet the standards. Your evidence should not be more than 3 years old to meet the currency requirements.
The RPL process itself can take some time, depending on how quickly you can gather and submit the necessary evidence. Some students choose to enrol in a course instead, as attending classes can sometimes be more straightforward than compiling the required documentation for RPL.

Credit Transfer
Credit transfer acknowledges formal education and training previously completed. If you have successfully completed a superseded unit that has been deemed equivalent, and you can demonstrate that your knowledge is up to date, WHS Foundation will recognise the unit and apply it as credit towards your current studies.
To apply for credit transfer, you will need to provide evidence of your completed unit(s) by either: downloading a secure PDF of your USI record from the USI Student Portal or providing a copy of your official academic transcript listing the completed units.
