Skills Assessment / RPL Process

Initial interview.

 
Stage 1 is our Document Assessment in which we take all your documents and evidence, and do our standard checks and balances to match your experience skills and knowledge against your particular industry training package. Once this has been successfully completed, we can move to the next stage
 
Stage 2 is where we do a Technical Assessment. This is a face to face or Skype interview with you, to gather more evidence on your knowledge and skills in the industry. It is a very friendly competency discussion on the industry and your role in that industry. At each stage, we will complete a comprehensive report and follow up on any references and employers as required.
 
If we are happy with all the evidence after stages 1 & 2 then we will be happy to complete the assessment and issue you the final qualification/certificate.
 
Only if required, and we are still short of suitable evidence after stages 1 & 2, then we will discuss this with you to see if you can provide the extra evidence, or if we can proceed to stage 3
 
 
Stage 3 is the Practical Assessment in which we will set up a time and place that suits everyone, and complete a few practical tasks related to the industry and any specific evidence shortfalls. This can be at your own workplace or at one of our associated training facilities.
 
After completing the assessment process, the assessor will complete all necessary documents and reports and submit your file to our Validation, Moderation and Compliance team for checking and issuing of the final Qualification/Certificate. We will email you a certified copy straight away and also send the original and certified copies directly to you by mail.
