Qualification Overview

Why use the RPL Service?

The Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) mandates that aircraft engineers obtain specific licences, such as the Part 66 Aircraft Engineer Licence, to perform and certify maintenance tasks. Achieving these licences requires demonstrating both theoretical knowledge and practical experience. Flight One School of Engineering’s Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) service facilitates this process by assessing engineers’ existing workplace experience against the required units of competency. This assessment enables engineers to attain necessary qualifications efficiently, ensuring compliance with CASA’s licensing requirements and advancing their professional standing.

The RPL process involves three key steps:

  1. Initial RPL Report: Applicants submit evidence of prior experience, such as logbooks and certifications, for assessment against required competencies. A report identifies gaps in skills or knowledge.
  2. Gap Training: If gaps are found, a tailored training plan is provided to address them through theory or practical training.
  3. Final RPL Report: After completing training, a formal assessment verifies the applicant’s competencies, culminating in a report confirming their eligibility for qualifications or licensing.

This process allows professionals to efficiently meet regulatory requirements, such as CASA licensing, by recognising their prior experience.
