HOW YOU WILL LEARN
This program will be delivered as required on campus or in the workplace, in workshops, in blocks as
required for the work group through negotiation with CDU.
ASSESSMENT
Assessments are completed both during classroom sessions and after the completion of the unit. Students
have a set date when assessments must be completed by. Assessments vary with each unit and include
evidence gathered from a workplace, portfolios on the job assessments and written assignments.
RECOGNITION OF PRIOR LEARNING
Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) takes into account the knowledge and skills you have already gained
through your previous education and work. This may be through formal or informal training, paid or unpaid
work experience, and can earn you credit if relevant to this course. Fees do apply for RPL assessment. For
details on fees and information on how to apply for RPL, please refer to:
http://www.cdu.edu.au/sites/default/files/mace/docs/VET-student-guide.pdf
PREVIOUS STUDIES RECOGNITION
Do you already have a qualification, statements of attainment or academic statements for units completed at
another registered training organisation? ‘National recognition’ is all about recognising these previous
studies.
Where units of competency have the same national code but were awarded by another Registered Training
Organisation (RTO), CDU will recognise these to assist you in completing this qualification. Simply present
your original documentation – i.e. qualification, statements of attainment or academic statements – to the
Course Coordinator who will verify the authenticity of these and arrange for a copy to be placed on file for
later reference. There is no cost for recognition of these units.
Previous study or experience may be recognised either through a Credit Transfer (CT) or Recognition of
Prior Learning (RPL) pathway. Where credit for a unit of competence has been attained previously from a
RTO and that unit of competency is recognised in the current Training Package or Accredited Course
documentation, a CT will be granted. Where a student has no such recognised competency, but believes
their previous experience no matter how gained, demonstrates competence in the unit (or course), a process
of RPL will be used to determine whether the previous experience and knowledge achieves competence in
the current unit or course.
For details of credit transfer, please discuss this with the VET Lecturer.
EXIT POINTS
You may exit or withdraw from this qualification at any time and receive a Statement of Attainment for all
units of competency you have successfully completed.
