RECOGNITION OF PRIOR LEARNING (RPL) AND CREDIT TRANSFER

All 1 Education students are provided with an opportunity to claim any advanced credit for their past studies or life experiences where that experience overlaps with the subjects contained in the course we are offering.

You will be asked to consider whether you would like to apply for any Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) at the time of your enrolment, at which time, a self-assessment will be made available for you to complete. Please note that recognition of prior learning has no impact on course fees.

If you already hold the exact units of competency or an approved equivalent unit of competency to any of the units contained in your course then you will be given credit for that unit/s under national mutual recognition guidelines. This is called a Credit Transfer and any credit transfer issued may reduce the overall cost of your course.

SUPPORT SERVICES

Your program will be delivered by a specialist Trainer who will remain accessible to you following your initial formal training.

The 1 Education administration team will also remain available to assist you with any non-educational issues not relating specifically to your course content, or in cases where an issue cannot be resolved between you and your Trainer.

Please remember that a detailed step-by-step guide for raising complaints and appealing an assessment decision, has been provided in the 1 Education Student Handbook, made available to you via the 1 Education website.

LANGUAGE LITERACY AND NUMERACY

We understand some people require more time than others to complete reading, writing and numeracy tasks.

To ensure we have an accurate understanding of your support needs, we require you to complete an assessment during your enrolment against the Australian Core Skills Framework (ACSF). We will then discuss any additional support or course modifications that might be required, if and as needed.

In many cases, where students are looking to enter the hospitality workforce for the first time, 1 Education may include and additional enrolment into some foundation subjects from the Certificate II in Skills for Work and Vocational Outcomes, to assist with a smooth entry into the industry as a new employee. These foundation skills may relate to such topics as identifying and securing employment, workplace communication and problem solving / learning in the workplace.
