Exemptions / RPL

Students may apply for credit transfer for prior learning (exemptions), which includes
formal study undertaken in recognised tertiary institutions in Australia, including
universities, colleges, TAFE and other post-secondary education institutions.

Overseas institutions will be recognised to the extent to which they are considered to be equivalent to particular types of Australian institutions and consideration may extend under certain conditions, to programs provided by recognised professional bodies, employers and other authorities, where appropriate certification is available, and demonstrable expertise and relevant experience.

Credit will normally be granted for prior learning where relevant studies (or other demonstrated learning achievement) have been completed.

Students applying for Exemptions must complete the Exemptions Application Form. Applications should be submitted to SIBT prior to enrolment.  Applications can be sent by post, email or fax. If sending by email or fax, the originals or certified copies of the originals must also be posted.
