Member's Support Hub Webinar: Trainers/Assessors

15 December 2023
Online via Zoom Webinar

The Velg Training Member's Support Hub combines free, live webinars presented by our VET Expert every quarter
with an ongoing LinkedIn group for our Members exclusively.

Modelled informally on the community of practice concept, we want to provide a relatively unstructured platform to help you find, think about, and improve your ideas, tools, and practices; share your thoughts and experiences; and encourage ongoing discussion about shared ideas and issues.

Are you a bit unsure about Credit Transfer?

Not sure when it might actually be RPL?

Join David Garner on December 15, 2023, for our fourth Member's Support Hub webinar,
where you will explore some of the most common concerns relating to Credit Transfer and RPL

As trainers and assessors, we are often approached by students who are looking for recognition of competencies already achieved and/or their prior learning.  

Sometimes it can feel a bit daunting, in terms of when and how to do this!

Our members-only Compliance Chats have highlighted a range of common challenges members have faced.

Some were looking for a bit of guidance and a few tips to help them feel confident in their approach. Others needed to know just where to start.

This session is aimed at helping trainers understand:

  • The difference between Credit Transfer and RPL

  • When Credit Transfer can occur (including for the purpose of industry required 'refresher' training/competency to be re-achieved)

  • Equivalence of units

  • When it is necessary to undertake an RPL process instead

You can also help shape the focus of this session!

If you have a specific query about the re-registration or addition to scope process - please submit your Question on Notice here before Tuesday 12 December 2023.
