Recognition


TAFE NSW recognises skills gained through previous studies, the workplace and life experience which may allow you to complete your qualification faster. You may be entitled to recognition that will exempt you from one or more modules, up to 100% of the requirements for a course award. There is no fee for processing applications for current TAFE NSW students. Commercial (fee based) recognition is also available to organisations and individuals. If you are granted RPL the target unit is reported on your transcript of academic record as by advanced standing but you will not get a grade or mark for that unit. You must enrol in all units and apply for an exemption by completing a form. Attendance at class is necessary until the relevant exemption is granted.

Note: Some short, licensing or compliance courses, for example the Statement of Attainment in Food Safety for Supervisors, are not granted RPL by North Coast TAFE as demonstrated competency is required by regulatory authorities.

For further information please contact the Customer Service Centre on 1300 NCTAFE (1300 628233) or visit our website.
