Learning outcomes
This nationally recognised vocational education and training (VET) qualification is competency-based. This means that it is designed to enable participants to develop the practical skills and knowledge (competency) needed to perform the duties and tasks for the job role the participant is training for. Assessment in a competency-based program is about being able to demonstrate that practical skills and areas of knowledge are met by the participant as prescribed by the training package. This could involve showing an assessor how you plan and carry out tasks, and explaining to the assessor how you know what you are doing. It could also involve completing a project and presenting a report on the process and outcomes. If participants are working, a work supervisor may provide the assessor with a report on your skills based on the competency requirements of the training package. If you have already developed areas of skill and knowledge included in this program (e.g. through prior paid or voluntary work experience), you can be assessed and have these skills and knowledge formally recognised at any point during the program. There is information on the RMIT website about how to apply for Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) – refer to http://www1.rmit.edu.au/students/enrolment/credit.
