RPL stands for Recognition of Prior Learning. It is a process of recognising the skills and knowledge you already have so you don't have to demonstrate them again during your early childhood education qualification course.

As a result, "Can I get RPL for my early childhood education course?" is one of the most common questions we hear. If you're looking to start a career in child care (or advance your current one) with Certificate III or Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care training, then it would be beneficial for you to know about RPL too.
