Due to the complexity of the RPL application process, we can offer you general advice about applying, but we won’t be able to assess whether, and how, your prior learning will be recognised until you have formally applied.
Applicants seeking advice on the eligibility and nature of RPL are encouraged to contact SIHE at study@sydneyinstitute.edu.au.
Prior learning is assessed by our admissions staff in conjunction with our program directors and academic staff.
Credit will be awarded based on equivalency of completed prior formal learning to one or more units within a qualification. Credit can be used to meet pre-requisite requirements in other units of study.
“Equivalency” will be defined as approximately 80% of topics, learning outcomes or assessment. When approved, the credit will be transferred to specified or unspecified units within the qualification and recorded as “AS-Advanced Standing”.
