Recognition of Prior Learning Policy
DLT School recognizes that students might acquire vocational skills from a variety of different sources, other than formal training. These skills are valid, irrespective of how they were acquired. If you believe you have skills and knowledge that would be covered in the training programs offered by DLT School, you are advised to apply at time of enrolment to have your skills and knowledge assessed and where appropriate have the training program reduced. You can make an application for Recognition of Prior Learning at any time during the training program. An RPL application pack is available from the RTO Manager. DLT School will recognize nationally accredited training delivered by other training organizations. These qualifications will be recognized and where appropriate could be used to reduce any training program being offered by us.
Enrolment

Language, Literacy and Numeracy (LLN) Assistance
Prior or at enrolment, we will provide you with a LLN test to check your readiness to undertake the course level you wish to enroll in. Our course standard material contains written documentation and limited numerical calculations. We recognize that not all people are able to read, write and perform calculations to the same standards. We will endeavor to help you where we can and accommodate anyone who requires assistance in this area. In the event that your needs exceed our capacity to assist, we will refer you to an external support provider such as an appropriate LLN professional to further assist you. There are many free services available however if there is a cost involved this will need to be covered by you.
