Definition

"The recognition of prior learning and competencies (RPL) is a set of processes enabling individuals to list, authenticate, document, assess and have their prior learning and competencies recognized."

- (in Le Manuel, Association canadienne pour la reconnaissance des acquis, 2015)

RPL allows you to obtain a micro-certificate that recognizes a person's experiential knowledge and skills in one or more specific domains.

Advantages

RPL contributes to personal and professional development by:

  • Valuing skills acquired throughout life and eliminating the repetition of knowledge already acquired.
  • Encouraging continuing education, helping to promote careers.
  • Boosting self-esteem.
  • Encouraging lifelong learning.
