Who Needs an ACS RPL?
The Australian Computer Society (ACS) is the designated skills assessing body for ICT occupations in Australia's skilled migration program. You need to submit an RPL (Recognition of Prior Learning) if:
- You do not hold an ICT-related bachelor's degree or higher, OR
- Your degree is in a non-ICT field (e.g., Business, Science, Commerce), OR
- Your ICT qualification is at diploma level or below
ICT professionals with an ICT-related bachelor's degree typically follow the standard ACS skills assessment pathway rather than the RPL pathway.
What Is Included in the ACS RPL
- ICT Career Episode (Key Areas of Knowledge): A comprehensive narrative of your overall ICT career demonstrating breadth and depth of knowledge across the ACS Core Body of Knowledge (CBOK)
- Two Project Reports: Detailed descriptions of specific ICT projects showcasing your technical skills and problem-solving ability
