Assessment Methods
For a Training and Assessment pathway, participants are advised of the assessment requirements at the start of each training session.
Students not achieving competency in any of the assessments will be required to undertake another assessment under the terms and conditions of MITT’s reassessment policy.
Recognition Of Prior Learning (RPL) / Credit Transfer
Recognition of prior learning is a process where a person with work experience, can have their skills and knowledge assessed, with the aim of getting a formal qualification.
The skills and knowledge of the students are matched to current industry qualifications so that they can gain that formal recognition. RPL is ideal for people with industry relevant work skills or knowledge acquired.
Credit Transfer
MITT recognises AQF qualifications and Statements of Attainment issued by any other Registered Training Organisation in Australia. Students may request credit for a unit or course/program based on study in an identical unit or course/program at another institution. Suitable documentation such as a Statement of Attainment must be provided when applying for Credit Transfer or National Recognition.
