Process of Assessment for RPL
SCL Group accepts the following evidence for RPL:
Unit certificates
•
• Certificates for full qualifications When presenting a certificate for RPL, the learner will need to demonstrate their knowledge, skills and understanding to prevent the need to repeat the assessment, unit or course. Learners’ prior certificated learning can be used as evidence for assessment criteria. Copies are only acceptable as evidence where the original certificates have been seen and countersigned. When using certificates for RPL, SCL Group will cross reference the work between the two standards (the qualification/unit certificated, and the qualification registered on). Evidence of previous learning or achievement will be rigorously subjected to the assessment of its: • Validity: does the evidence demonstrate that the demands of the assessment criteria/learning outcome has been met? • Currency: does the evidence demonstrate that demands of the specification have been met and are up to date? (See page 8 for further clarification of currency) • Authenticity: can the evidence be unequivocally attributed to the learner? • Sufficiency: is there enough evidence to fully meet the criteria/outcome?
Other types of evidence The evidence gathered needs to meet the standards of the specification that it will be used for. Evidence from a learner’s past experience could include:
• Paid work, community or voluntary work
Home life
