Your Experience Counts

Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) is ideal for those who have gained skills and knowledge that are equivalent to what would be learned in a JMC course, whether through formal education, work experience, or informal learning. 

RPL Eligibility

All prospective students have the option of submitting any relevant prior learning to be recognised by completing an RPL Application. This application (together with documentation) must be provided with your enrolment form.

You may apply for RPL on the basis of (but not limited to):

  • Completed Informal Learning
  • Prior Experience
  • Work Based Learning
  • Self Tuition
  • Non-Accredited Qualification

RPL on the Basis of Work Experience

If you are seeking RPL based on your work experience, you will need to provide JMC with a detailed resume and duty statement. You may be asked to meet with the relevant trainer to discuss your application and/or undertake a skills test to confirm your competency. The skills test could be a written exam, an assignment, a production and/or an interview, or any other method of assessment that JMC deems appropriate.

RPL on the Basis of Other Accredited Training Completed

JMC recognises qualifications for accredited training issued by other registered training organisations. With your application for RPL, you will have to supply certified copies of transcripts of accredited training you have undertaken. You may be asked to meet with the relevant trainer to discuss your application and/or undertake a skills test to confirm your competency. The skills test could be a written exam, an assignment, a production and/or an interview, or any other method of assessment that JMC deems appropriate.
