At McMillan Staff Development, we understand that learning and skill development are not limited to the classroom. That’s why we provide two pathways – Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) and Recognition of Current Competency (RCC) – that not only lead to formal qualifications but also celebrate and formally acknowledge your professional growth and real-world expertise.
What is RPL and RCC?
Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) and Recognition of Current Competencies (RCC) are processes that assess your existing skills and knowledge acquired through previous work experience, training, life experiences, or informal learning. The purpose of these processes is to avoid the repetition of studying what you already know and can do. RPL and RCC aim to identify your strengths and weaknesses and focus on areas where you need improvement.
Through RPL and RCC, we assess your skills against industry standards. This is done by reviewing your work history, including any informal learning experiences that have contributed to your skill set.
We understand that skills and knowledge are often gained through practical experiences. RPL and RCC offer a formal recognition of these skills, acknowledging that learning occurs in various settings, not just in formal education.
By identifying the skills you already possess, we can customise your training plan. This means you can focus on developing new skills and knowledge areas, making your learning journey more efficient and relevant.
At McMillan Staff Development, our approach to RPL and RCC is grounded in a deep respect for the professional journey of each individual. We believe that every experience, whether in a formal job setting or through life’s myriad learning opportunities, contributes to your professional portfolio.
We recognise the diversity of experiences and the unique paths individuals take in their careers.
Our team is dedicated to guiding you through the RPL and RCC process, ensuring you understand each step and feel supported throughout.
By acknowledging your past and present competencies, we aim to fast-track your path to further education and career advancement.
To be eligible for RPL (Recognition of Prior Learning) and RCC (Recognition of Current Competency) at McMillan Staff Development, it’s essential to meet several criteria that affirm your readiness and ability to provide the necessary evidence for assessment. These criteria ensure that your skills and experiences are appropriately recognised:
Engaging in RPL or RCC isn’t just about submitting evidence; it’s a proactive journey.
