Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL)
What is RPL?
RPL is a process, which in simplified terms means that it is possible to take into account knowledge and experience acquired anywhere when fulfilling the admission requirements, or completing a study programme in order to avoid learning what has already been learnt. RPL benefits those who wish to continue with their unfinished studies or change their speciality, as well as those who wish to apply for the accreditation of knowledge and skills gained from additional training, work and other experiences. In addition, it is possible to use RPL in awarding professional qualifications and planning a career in general. RPL is an opportunity!
