How It Works

Once your Student Agreement is signed and your initial payment is confirmed, your RPL journey begins — here's what to expect at each stage.

Collect Your Evidence

Using your personalised checklist, gather evidence that demonstrates your skills and experience. This may include employment records, certificates, photos, videos, or supervisor references. Your Navigator will guide you every step of the way.

Receive Your Enrolment & RPL Docs

We'll send your Enrolment Form and LLN Assessment to complete first. Following that, you'll receive your SelfAssessment Form and Third-Party Verification Form to work through carefully before moving to the next step.

Submit Your Completed Forms

Complete and sign all required forms, then return them along with your full evidence portfolio. Ensure every section is filled in, all signatures are included, and all supporting documents are attached before submitting.

Assessment and Competency Review

Your RTO Assessor will review and map your evidence against the required unit competencies. Where further clarification is needed, a competency conversation will be conducted to confirm your knowledge and skills.

Outcome Issued

Once assessed as competent across all required units, the RTO will formally issue your certificate or Statement of Attainment. Your real-world experience is now officially recognised as a nationally accredited qualification.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I get a Certificate III in Concreting through RPL without going back to full-time training?

Yes, you can gain a Certificate III in Concreting through RPL, which recognises the concreting skills you've already built on site, matched against the qualification through a formal assessment process. You'll still work with the partner RTO, which carries out a genuine assessment of your evidence before the qualification is issued.

What evidence do I need for RPL in concreting?

Assessors look at photos and short videos, generally around 90 to 120 seconds each, taken on a real, active worksite that clearly show you carrying out concreting tasks. The footage needs to show you working in a professional setting so your skills can be matched against the qualification's requirements.

Is a Certificate III in Concreting from RPL the same as one from full-time study?

Yes, a Certificate III in Concreting issued through RPL is the exact same nationally recognised qualification as one earned through full-time training, with identical units on the certificate. It's issued by the ASQA-registered RTO that assesses your evidence, not by ATSR, which guides candidates through the RPL pathway.

What jobs can I do with a Certificate III in Concreting?

This qualification supports work as a Concreter, Concrete Tilt Panel Fabricator or Concrete Pump Operator, covering everything from placing and finishing slabs to fabricating tilt panels for larger builds. It gives formal backing to concreting skills many people have already been using on the job without a recognised qualification.
