Recognition of Prior Learning

The purpose of the online tool is to make it fast and efficient for you to apply for RPL.

Delivery Methods - Flexibility

DLA delivers courses in a number of ways. One of our major strengths is our ability to offer flexibility according to needs. One size does not fit all.

A person may study completely online, or a workplace may want to organise scheduled training face to face. A workplace also may benefit from allocating mentors to staff, asking us to conduct a skills analysis, organising study groups and implementing workbased projects. We understand the complexity of the workplace - for example staff release time, and providing education that is relevant and timely.
