Benefits of RPL and Skill RecognitionPosted by 3CIR Pty Ltd on December 4th, 2019 Recognition of prior learning, also known as RPL is becoming a popular concept in the present time. This learning concept is a process under which you identify your knowledge and skills against a qualification by the way of identification, mediation, assessment as well as acknowledgment of knowledge and skills obtained by the way of non-formal, informal or formal learning methods. To put it simply, RPL refers to an acknowledgment for the work that you have done or skills that you have acquired throughout your lifetime, which can contribute towards your qualification. RPL assessment helps to provide an opportunity to you using which you can identify your learning, get it assessed, and finally acknowledge it in the form of a formal qualification. Thus, RPL assessment can be considered as a straightforward process involving assessment of a person’s knowledge or skills irrespective of where and how the skills or knowledge were learned. RPL doesn’t judge the evidence of competence on the basis of credentials or qualifications that you have achieved. Even if you have achieved any of these, they tend to become part of their claim. RPL assessment is an amazing concept of the assessment of skills and knowledge against certain criteria. The criteria are outcome-based and not descriptive in nature. Listed below are some of the benefits of RPL assessment and skill recognition: 1. This concept helps to facilitate access for all the non-traditional students, thereby providing them with an opportunity using which they can showcase their talent on any platform. 2. RPL helps to acknowledge the value of learning outside a formal setting. There are no books and work involved.
