RPL, or Recognition of Prior Learning, is a process that assesses an individual's existing skills and knowledge gained through work experience, education, or other life experiences. This method allows learners to receive credit or qualifications without having to undergo formal training for skills they already possess. RPL is commonly used in educational institutions and vocational training programs to help students progress more quickly. By recognizing their prior learning, individuals can save time and resources while achieving their educational or career goals. This approach supports lifelong learning and acknowledges the value of informal and non-formal learning experiences.
