What is
Recognition of
Prior Learning (RPL)?

Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) involves people reflecting on their learning journey so they can plan their future, whether that’s in education, or taking the next step in their career path.

This includes learning that has taken place in school, college, university, workshops, training, in the workplace and through life experiences.

Our RPL Guide signposts people in Scotland to a range of information relevant to their needs. Try it today.
