Critical Notes:
- Students looking to accelerate the processing of their RPL report will need to pay in full upfront.
- If you believe you have valid previous Aeroskills qualifications, units of competency, or are transferring from another provider and wondering if you can get a discount, select the ‘Pay by Invoice’ option at checkout and following the Client RPL Document Upload process, we will assess if any industry discount applies (without guarantee) and revise the invoice, however this will slow down the process of receiving your initial RPL report.
- Initial RPL report, career or training advice and guidance will only be released following payment of tuition fees in full.
