Professional Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) reports for the Australian Computer Society skills assessment. Trusted by 500+ ICT professionals with a 98% approval rate.
The Australian Computer Society (ACS) is the peak body responsible for assessing the ICT skills of internationally qualified professionals for Australian skilled migration visa purposes. If your ICT qualifications are not directly recognised by ACS, you will need to submit a Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) report that demonstrates your ICT skills and knowledge through work experience and self-learning.
An ACS RPL report requires you to describe two ICT project episodes, each spanning at least three months, where you applied specific ICT skills in a professional context. Each episode must be between 1,500 and 2,500 words and address the ACS Core Body of Knowledge (CBOK) skill areas relevant to your nominated ANZSCO occupation code. The report must also be supported by a summary of your work history and evidence of employment.
Writing a compelling ACS RPL report is a specialised skill. Assessors look for clear evidence of applied ICT competencies — not just a description of your job duties. At Assessment Abroad in Victoria, Australia, our RPL specialists have deep knowledge of ACS requirements and CBOK skill areas. We help ICT professionals translate their real-world technical experience into a structured, persuasive RPL report that meets the exacting standards of ACS assessors.
We assess your ICT background, identify the right ANZSCO code, and select the two strongest project episodes that will best demonstrate your ACS CBOK competencies.
Our ICT-specialist writers craft your two project episodes with precision, mapping your technical experience to the CBOK skill areas required for your nominated occupation.
We perform a full quality review and plagiarism check, then guide you through the ACS online portal submission process to ensure everything is lodged correctly.

Unlike generic migration agents, Assessment Abroad is a specialist skills assessment consultancy. Our team includes ICT professionals who understand the technical nuances of software development, networking, data management, and cybersecurity. This technical understanding allows us to write RPL episodes that read with genuine ICT depth — not generic language that assessors can immediately identify as non-specialist writing.
Since our establishment in Victoria in 2019, we have guided more than 500 applicants through the ACS RPL process across dozens of ICT specialisations. Our 98% approval rate is the clearest evidence of the quality and effectiveness of our approach. We keep our client load deliberately manageable so that every applicant receives the attention their application deserves.
You need to submit an RPL report if your highest ICT qualification is below Australian bachelor degree level, or if your qualification is in a non-ICT field but you have extensive ICT work experience. If your qualifications are assessed as closely related to your nominated ANZSCO code, you may only need to provide a detailed employment record rather than a full RPL. We will clarify which pathway applies to you during your free consultation.
Our standard turnaround for writing your RPL report is 7 to 12 business days from your consultation and receipt of supporting materials. ACS typically takes 4 to 6 weeks to process a completed RPL submission. We recommend starting the writing process at least two months before your intended visa application date to allow time for the ACS assessment and any follow-up requests.
You will need your updated resume or CV, academic transcripts and certificates, reference letters or statutory declarations from employers for each project episode, and evidence of employment such as payslips, contracts, or tax records. ACS also requires a certified English translation if any of your documents are not in English. We provide you with a complete checklist during your consultation.
Yes. The ACS RPL pathway is specifically designed for ICT professionals who have developed their skills through work experience rather than formal study. You will need to demonstrate at least one year of relevant ICT work experience for each year of formal qualification you lack. Our specialists will assess your background and advise you on the strongest way to present your case to ACS.
If ACS requests a further assessment or additional information following your initial submission, we provide full support to respond to that request. We will review the ACS feedback, identify the gaps or issues raised, and help you prepare the most effective response. For clients whose RPL was written by us, this additional support is provided at a significantly reduced rate.
