National (Mutual) Recognition
If you have completed units of competency with other Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) in Australia, then you may be able to apply for National (Mutual) Recognition. Under National (Mutual) Recognition, RTOs agree to recognise each other's training where possible.
You will need to provide a Statement of Competencies achieved. Log book records or training records do not prove that you have achieved the competencies.
We can provide you with lists of the competencies in your TAFE course. We will need to know the TAFE course number. Contact us to get a Competency Units Table for your course.
Find out all about the unit you want to apply for at Training.gov.au (TGA). Use the search screen at the foot of the TGA Home Page.
Pre Arranged RPL
TAFE NSW creates special credit agreements on request. There are arrangements for specialist courses such as Workcover Accredited First Aid Training, Higher School Certificate courses in NSW, and some University courses.
TAFE NSW Student Recognition Guides list the Pre-Arranged RPL and Credit Transfer arrangements for each TAFE module. Contact us to ask for a Student Recognition Guide. You will need to tell us the name and TAFE module number.
For credit transfer arrangements from the NSW Higher School Certificate, visit their site.
TAFE NSW has agreements with The University of Newcastle, NSW for many first year courses. See a full list of The University of Newcastle courses providing Recognition in TAFE NSW.
