To ensure an appropriate learning opportunity, prospective students would need to demonstrate a capacity to undertake study at Diploma level. This can be demonstrated via the following:
ICV will conduct LLN entry test on the orientation day. It is standard for all students to undertake LLN test on orientation day to assess their Language, Literacy and Numeracy level. LLN will be conducted to identify the right level of support for the student.
Clients with no formal qualification, although have experience in Building & Construction, supervisory or management experience is an advantage.
Learners can demonstrate competency through formal, non-formal and informal learning:
formal learning refers to learning that takes place through a structured program of instruction and is linked to the attainment of an AQF qualification or statement of attainment (for example, a certificate, diploma or university degree);
non-formal learning refers to learning that takes place through a structured program of instruction, but does not lead to the attainment of an AQF qualification or statement of attainment (for example, in-house professional development programs conducted by a business); and
informal learning refers to learning that results through experience of work-related, social, family, hobby or leisure activities.
Learners are encouraged to apply for RPL prior to or immediately after formal enrolment but prior to the facilitated delivery of units to ensure that they do not miss any class/workshop opportunities offered should they be unsuccessful in the RPL process.
