RPL Instructions for the TAE40110 Certificate IV in Training and Assessment. The TAE40110 Certificate IV in Training and Assessment qualification requires the achievement of 10 units of competence. The table below provides a description of the suggested evidence and possible evidence acceptable for recognition against each of the 10 units. The types of documents or paperwork you can provide, as demonstration of competence, may vary from those documents suggested - please contact us if you believe you have any difficulty collecting similar documents or believe you have alternative evidence. Please note all documentation must be authenticated as your own work. Providing a signed Covering Letter from a supervisor or work colleague, who is aware of your work, will be suitable for authenticating your documentation. The person authenticating your work should indicate their position and how they can confirm that the paperwork provided was your work. You may also wish to authenticate your work through other methods, such as, providing videos, Certificates, Awards, Conference or Refereed Journal Papers and such. Where possible, please provide a portfolio of evidence similar to the examples suggested against each unit in the table below.

� Work examples should be less than 12 months old wherever possible. You may provide older

documents that will demonstrate a composite view of your knowledge and which will contribute to the demonstration of your overall competence.

� If you are unable to provide actual business document examples you may provide your own answers

to the relevant questions (as indicated on the checklist). If your answers do not satisfy the requirements, we may contact you to discuss the option of an interview. We recognise that many of the workplace documents will be confidential, however we are obliged to ensure the privacy of all documents received for RPL and all documents will remain secure under the operation of our RTO. If you have concerns in this area please contact us to discuss.

� Evidence requirements are specified as ‘or’ or ‘and’ - where ‘or’ gives you options, but ‘and’ means

all documents required.

� RPL documentation may also be used more than once against more than one unit (or part thereof). Therefore you may not need to collect separate documents for each unit. This is an holistic approach to the RPL process (please contact us for any clarification).

� Please ensure you have a backup copy of your entire portfolio and any answers to questions (which

you may wish to type directly in this document) - also - do not send original documents through the mail. Send only certified copies of originals!

� Lastly, we require JP certified copies of any Qualifications or Statements of Attainment you wish to

have directly credited or mapped to your RPL. Where you may have completed your previous qualification with Tasmanian Training Institute we will not require a certified copy.

Please note – a good start to your RPL process is to submit a detailed Résumé of your work history. This will be helpful for your assessor to gain an understanding of your background and capacity to succeed with RPL. If we perceive there are any issues for a successful RPL, we will contact you and discuss this with you. We welcome you to the RPL process and look forward to being of assistance to you in gaining your qualification. At all times we will work with you to ensure a smooth process to a positive outcome! *Fees - $1050 for RPL (initial RPL enquiry carries a non-refundable fee of $150).

RPL EVIDENCE TABLE Suggested documentation to collect…

If you are unsure as to the ‘sufficiency’ of your evidence, provide what you can and our communication with you will assist in the completion of the RPL

� Simply check the box if you think you can provide the range of documents required (Y for yes) or (N for no) - and send back your checklist

to us for approval to begin collecting the documents

been provided for this or you may simply attach your responses on a separate sheet

� The Evidence Review table is also for our internal processes and will complete the overall evaluation of your RPL evidence and determine the

steps required to gain RPL (if any).

Please check the boxes where you are able to provide documented evidence (*hint – you might wish to number the documents as you may refer to them for evidence for a number of units). You may also wish to describe your own experiences relevant to the unit in the column provided.
