applying for RPL to gain entry onto a programme or seek
exemptions from parts of a programme.

What is RPL?
Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) is the
generic term for learning assessment
mechanisms such as Accreditation of Prior
Learning (APL) or Advanced Academic
Standing, which are used within Higher
Education to describe the awarding of credit /
exemptions to applicants on the basis of
demonstrated learning that has occurred prior
to admission.
Classifications of RPL?
1. Recognition of Prior Certified Learning
2. Recognition of Prior Experiential Learning
Why RPL?
Important element of EU policy for widening
access to qualifications and supporting LLL
In Ireland, the Qualifications Act 1999
established the right for an applicant to get
recognition for prior learning.
Background to RPL
The term ‘prior learning’ is learning that has
taken place, but not necessarily been assessed
or measured, prior to entering a programme
or seeking an award.
Prior learning may have been acquired through:
1. Formal routes
2. Non-formal routes (intentional)
3. Informal routes (non intentional)
What RPL can be used for?
• Access on to programme
• Advanced Entry
• Credits / Exemptions
• Awards
Challenges
• Lack of understanding by learners and
academics
• Idiosyncratic at each HEI (& within)
• Unnecessary Duplication
• Lack of resources in HEIs
• Threat?
Best Practice
• Comprehensive RPL Policy
• Trained staff
• Dedicated RPL personnel
• Tools in place (application forms, sample
portfolios, assessment tools etc..)
