I have been in my job for 9 years and Ive heard that I can have my skills recognised and receive a qualification without going back to school. How do I do this?

Yes, you may be able to have your current skills and abilities recognised. Depending on your level of work skills and the qualification being sought, you may qualify for Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) through all or most of the course. Alternatively, you may be able to have your skills assessed under the Recognition of Current Competency (RCC) process. Contact your ITAB who can advise you on which Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) run courses in your area and are interested in assessing your abilities against the qualifications. While most RTO’s charge fees for this RCC/RPL service, your employer may be able to attract a Commonwealth Employer Incentive for putting you through training, RPL or RCC processes.
