If you're typing into Google 'RPL meaning', here's your answer.
RPL refers to the Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) system in South Africa - a system in which lifelong learning; access and redress in education, training, development and work; and progression along learning and work pathways are of central importance.
It's a process through which formal, non-formal and informal learning are measured, mediated for recognition across different contexts and certified against the requirements for credit, access, inclusion or advancement in the formal education and training system or workplace.
The aim is to make it possible to obtain formal recognition for knowledge gained throughout life, such as in workplaces and own reading or experiences.
The RPL process also entails providing support to a candidate to ensure that knowledge is discovered and displayed in terms of a relevant qualification registered on the National Qualifications Framework (NQF).
