Credit and Recognition of Prior Learning If you've applied for a course and have previous formal learning, e.g. a diploma or a degree, or have prior work experience and professional development or other training while employed, you may be eligible for Credit and Recognition of Prior Learning, or CRPL.
CRPL compares units studied in that learning with proposed ECU units. It can allow you to reduce the number of units you need to study to be awarded your ECU qualification.
