BOS 16/09

The Board of Studies has revised the policy on recognition of prior learning (RPL) and credit transfer within VET courses. This advice supersedes previous advice.

Students may be granted credit (recognition of prior learning or credit transfer) for:

• units of competency within the AQF VET qualifications
• School Certificate (SC) or HSC VET course outcomes and content as defined by the indicative hour requirements of SC or HSC VET courses
• mandatory work placement requirements.

Further information about the arrangements for RPL and credit transfer within VET courses, including processes, application forms and examples of possible scenarios, is available on the vocational education page of the Board's website.

Effective: Immediately
