Skills and knowledge can be gained in many ways. For example, this could be from formal learning toward a qualification or informal learning, independent study, work, and life experience.

Recognition of prior learning for credit is a process where your existing skills and knowledge (your learning) are evaluated against the outcomes of a qualification, programme, course, module, or assessment standard.

If your skills and knowledge meet some or all the outcomes, these can be recognised by the award of credit towards a qualification, programme, course, module, or assessment standard. This means that you may not have to repeat learning that you already know, and can achieve your qualification faster.

BHB has created a guide to help you through the RPL process. The purpose of this guide is to help you better understand how your skills and knowledge from previous formal and non-formal learning can be recognised for credit towards a qualification.

To apply for RPL please fill in the form below.

You may apply for Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) at any time up to and no later than two weeks before the programme/course start date. Please refer to BHB Academy’s RPL Guidebook for details.

It is highly recommended you continue attending classes until the outcome of your RPL application is confirmed.

If your application for RPL is successful it may affect your eligibility for student loans or allowances.
