Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL)


Get Certified for the Skills You Already Have

At Civil Safety, we understand that your experience and on-the-job skills are valuable. Our Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) process gives you the opportunity to have your existing skills and knowledge formally recognised, saving you time and money while advancing your career.

Whether you’re experienced in dogging, rigging, plant operations, or more, RPL can help you achieve nationally recognised certification without repeating training you already know.


Why Choose RPL?

  • Save Time & Money – Get credit for your existing skills and reduce the time spent completing a qualification.

  • Flexible Learning – Study at your own pace, fitting education in around your work and personal commitments. 

  • National Recognition – Receive a certification recognised across Australia, helping you stand out in your industry.

  • Career Progression – Formalise your skills to unlock higher responsibilities, licences, or further study opportunities.


How RPL Works

  1. Initial Assessment – Speak with one of our team to determine your eligibility and identify the units you can apply for.

  2. Provide Evidence – Submit evidence of your skills and experience, such as work samples, job records, or references.

  3. Skills Verification – Complete practical assessments if required, guided by our qualified trainers.

  4. Receive Your Qualification – Once your skills are verified, you’ll receive a nationally recognised statement of attainment or qualification.


Who Can Apply?

RPL is suitable for individuals who:

  • Have significant work experience in their trade or industry

  • Have completed informal or on-the-job training

  • Want to gain formal recognition without completing full courses

No matter how you gained your skills, Civil Safety can help you turn experience into recognised qualifications.
