How Does It Work
You will be asked to complete an RPL Application and provide evidence against each of the units. Where there are gaps in your evidence, a professional conversation with your assessor from Bradford Institute of Advanced Education may provide additional evidence. Your assessor may also ask you to provide further evidence to substantiate your claim of competency in a particular unit/s.
Where gaps in evidence remain – that is that you cannot be considered competent on the evidence provided, gap training will be made available to you. For gap training, you may be provided with workbooks and given assessments to complete. It is possible that gap training might include practical assessments.
What Is The Investment?
For those less experienced officers, traditional training and assessment is available. Please contact Admin for further details.
