Does anyone know the RPL process?

YOu'll be fine babe!!!!

I did all the accreditation with FDC already.... The reg and guidlines are almost identical.. actually a lot of it just had side bits for FDC, and is based on centre care anyway... and apparently it means nothing to NSW Tafe.... very annoying!!!
I actaully have the MASSIVE folder of most of it still here!!

I hope they help you out and recognise all you know!!! xoxoxo

You should contact Skilling Solutions (or whatever it's called in NSW) and see if they can mark off what you know so all you have to do is gap training?

OOOhhh, will do!! The Tafe just didnt care, said just had to do everything in the course or no cert... and with the new law, no cert, no FDC!!!

Leasha:
If you're going through Skilling Solutions, it will be SO easy. Last year I had two staff members use them, and they got so much stuff ticked off. Validly, too, because they actually knew what they were doing. They will go through your competencies one by one, and they pretty much tell you what you already know. It will be sweet.

Jodie:
NSW tafe is soooooo hard to get RPL through. I stupidly did my Cert III through them, and just had to slog it out. Sounds like you might be doing the same course I did (by distance?) so just hit me up if you need help to get through the hard slog. Regs are actually a bit tighter up here wrt holding the cert III.

Hope that helps you both!

Leasha - the RPL process can differ from one organisation to the next and from one course to the next. So the best thing to do is to discuss it with the RPL coordinator. I know for a course I want to do, I have to provide certified copies of my marks as well as the course outline for each module I want RPL for (along with $200 per class!).

Good luck with it!
