You’ll also need to possess basic computing skills, and may be required to complete a Language Literacy and Numeracy skills assessment before enrolment can be confirmed.

Testimonials

  • "I am completing RPL for the remainder of my Diploma of Community Services and want to say that Rosan has made this an easy process and I couldn't be more grateful for his advice and communication throughout. RPL seemed like a daunting long winded process, however I can confirm that if you are working in the field, it becomes second nature and a lot easier than it seems! I recommend anybody gains employment in the field they are studying to consider utilising RPL if they're eligible! Thanks again Rosan!"
