Commonwealth Agenda for Expanding RPL Nationally
COAG – February 2006: By January 2007 all RTOs in receipt of public
funding will have a contractual obligation to offer all workers entering training who are not new entrants to the labour market, a quick and simple process to recognise their existing skills.

Recognition of prior learning must be offered to all participants upon enrolment and prior to commencement of formal training delivery
(Clause included in APL contracts.)

New Recording and Reporting RPL Requirements
From 2007, RTOs required to record and report at module/unit level all RPL assessments undertaken regardless of outcome
From 2006, Commonwealth will count 100 per cent of RPL effort the same as the effort associated with training delivery and assessment
