RECOGNITION OF PRIOR LEARNING. 16.1 The use of Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) will be closely monitored by the Department, as the attainment of any qualification funded under the Agreement is expected to comprise substantial skill and knowledge development, rather than large amounts of RPL activity. Where much of the qualification is likely to be achieved through RPL, the Department expects that the Recipient will assess and support the Participant to enrol instead in a higher-level qualification to ensure that skill levels are increased. 16.2 The Funding paid for RPL (AVETMISS result code 51 or 52) in a Unit of Competency completed by a Participant enrolled in a Course at Certificate III and above, is 50% of the published Funding inclusive of the location loading. 16.3 Funding will not be paid for RPL for Participants as specified in Item 12 of the Funded Activities Annexure or Units of Competency deemed to be a Foundation Skills Course or a Bridging Unit.
