Yes! You are still eligible under the new guidelines as long as you meet the above criteria.

All of our courses have an placement component. While previously in high school or at other educational institutions you may have had to look for your own placement, at FYI Training we will find placement for you. We have a placement coordinator who will allocate you to a workplace relevant to your course.

You will not be able to commence your work placement unless you have the necessary documentation, such as your working with children check or police check. If you cannot commence your placement during the period specified in your program, we can work with you to organise this at a time that you can attend.

Documentation needs to be returned to our office, prior to your commencement of placement.

Credit transfer is defined in the AQF as follows:

Credit transfer is a process that provides students with agreed and consistent credit outcomes for components of a qualification based on identified equivalence in content and learning outcomes between matched qualifications.

This is underpinned by the AQF definition of credit as follows:
Credit is the value assigned for the recognition of equivalence in content and learning outcomes between different types of learning and/or qualifications. Credit reduces the amount of learning required to achieve a qualification and may be through credit transfer, articulation, recognition of prior learning or advanced standing. For further information please go to the AQF website.

Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) involves a formal recognition of the skills and knowledge your staff members have already achieved through previous studies, work and life experiences.

Assessment:

FYI Training will formally assess a students existing skills and knowledge so that they can count towards their qualification and shorten the period of training. RPL takes into account:

• work-related training courses

• on-the-job skills and work experience

• volunteer and community work

• a combination of all of the above

There is NO fee for FYI Training to assess an applicants initial application for RPL. However FYI Training does charge the nominal contact hour for each unit of competency being formally assessed. For further information please contact our office.
