Myth #1: “I will only get RPL after a long time of working”
If you have been in your job for a few months thinking your current skills and experience will not take you anywhere. You are possibly wrong. In fact, most certificate-level qualifications only require minimum as little as 6 months of experience. It is one of the misconception about RPL.
Myth #2: RPL process is really complicated and time-consuming
Lots of people think that it takes time and tons of documents to obtain a qualification. In fact, it does not cost you an arm and leg, there are only a small number of documents needed. Also, the process of RPL is getting simpler with us. You submit all required documents. We prepare your RPL kit and transfer it to our in-house accessor, once your file gets approved, you will get your qualification within 3-4 weeks.
Myth #3: Qualifications through RPL process are not “powerful” as qualifications through traditional study
Due to its simple process, it is a common misconception of RPL. But people think qualification through RPL process is not as the same as ones get through traditional study. This is not right for the following reasons:
- Under the Australian Quality Training Framework- competencies might be considered in a number of ways. Which include academic study or real-life experience.
- Your qualification will be issued by a registered RTO and it is recognised anywhere in Australia. In fact, at <strong>Educube</strong> we are partnered with CRICOS colleges-which means colleges that we are working with are even permitted to teach international students.
The bottom line is that RPL qualification is no different comparing to qualification through study. In fact, you will even get a qualification from reputable RTO just by applying through <strong>Educube</strong>.
Myth #4: “I probably need to study for a short course or sit for an exam before obtaining RPL qualification”
RPL process is about recognising your skills and experience. In most of cases, RPL accessor have required no further study or any examination before issuing a qualification.
Myth #5: “I cannot use RPL for my visa application”
As we mentioned earlier, RPL qualification is as worth as a traditional qualification. Therefore, you can definitely can use RPL to meet your visa requirements.
Myth #6: “RPL is only available to process in Australia”
In fact, people with oversea experience can also apply RPL (regardless whether they are inside or outside Australia). Therefore, it is definitely possible to obtain an Australian qualification without physically being in the country.
