The assessment process reviews:

HOW IS THIS KNOWLEDGE AND SKILL ASSESSED? Skill and knowledge will be assessed by a qualified assessor. The assessor has both education, real estate qualifications and experience to conduct the RPL assessment. A portfolio of evidence must be provided that outlines skill, experience and training. An evidence checklist will be provided to assist in gathering sufficient evidence quickly and easily.

HOW DOES THE PROCESS WORK? Individuals are required to enrol in the RPL assessment process with Kaplan. Necessary documentation will be provided and Kaplan will organise for an assessor to contact individuals to assist and guide them through the whole process.

Complete remaining unit by preferred option. Successfully complete units.

THE INTERVIEW (IF REQUIRED) The interview is a supportive discussion. Individuals may need to discuss evidence with the assessor and explore further claims for competence in a unit or units. This interview assists to gain the best possible result.

RESULTS On completion of the RPL assessment one of the following results will be issued: C = Competent Unit completed and no further study is required NYC = Not Yet Competent Individual required to complete the unit.

Insufficient evidence. Units not granted.

Results processed and certificate issued by KP.
