Exemptions based on prior learning

Applicants may present to an Awarding body-approved training centre evidence of relevant competence which is not based on a recognised qualification, for consideration of accreditation of prior learning by the training provider. Such accreditation of prior learning consideration must be evidence-based, must have clear audit-trails on how each final decision was reached, and be based on the principles of authenticity, currency, relevance and sufficiency.
