Get recognised for the advanced ICT expertise you’ve built on the job. The ICT60220 Advanced Diploma of Information Technology covers senior specialist and managerial work across areas such as data management, cyber security, systems development, IT strategy and telecommunications network engineering. Through Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL), ATSR helps you turn that hands-on experience into a nationally recognised qualification, referring you to a partner RTO for formal assessment.

Yes, if you've built up real experience working in IT, that experience can be formally assessed against the Advanced Diploma instead of you enrolling in a complete course of study. ATSR helps you organise your evidence, and the formal assessment against the qualification is carried out by our partner RTO.
You need documented evidence that you've been working at a senior technical or leadership level in IT, such as records or reports showing how you've analysed and solved complex technical or business problems, and evidence of leading or managing a team, like team plans or performance reviews. The assessor is checking your evidence covers the full range and complexity expected of the qualification.
Yes, it's the same AQF-registered Advanced Diploma of Information Technology, issued by an ASQA-registered RTO whether it's completed through classroom study or RPL. RPL is a different, equally recognised pathway to the identical qualification, not a lesser alternative.
An Advanced Diploma of Information Technology through RPL gives you the same formal qualification that enterprise architecture manager, knowledge manager and software manager roles typically require. It puts years of hands-on technical and leadership experience into a nationally recognised credential without needing a university degree.
Turn years of hands-on ICT experience into an Advanced Diploma nationally recognised across Australia.
