Techskill Academy is not a building commission and does not issue licences. Therefore, we can’t guarantee you a licence when you get your qualification. However, the qualification we deliver you will align to the licence you need. So once you get this qualification, you’ll be eligible to apply for the licence. Completing your qualification with us is only the first step in a 2-step process.
You have several options for paying your course fees, including:
- credit card over the phone
- bank transfer on receipt of our invoice
- multiple other payment options.
Contact our office to find out more.
Yes. We offer a range of payment options if you’re having difficulty paying your fees, including:
- interest-free finance options
- time-to-pay options
- pay-as-you-go options
- split payments
- direct debit from your credit card.
These options keep you moving forward – so you can start your course now and pay later. We also run many promotions and specials throughout the year, so keep an eye out for those.
Contact our support team and we’ll send you a statement or give you this information over the phone or via email.
We are not tax advisors, so we always advise you to seek professional advice. However, if the qualification relates to your job or industry, it is generally 100% tax-deductible. But please seek advice from your tax professional.
Yes, but specific rules apply. We can review your circumstances to see if you’re eligible for credit transfers. Basically, if you have previously completed a unit in an equivalent course with us, we may be able to credit it.
Contact our team and we’ll go through the details with you.
The RPL framework is a nationally recognised process providing the opportunity for experienced people to be formally recognised for their skills and knowledge without the need to attend formal training.
So, this eliminates the need for classroom training or online training.
You can apply for any number of units through the RPL process, including the entire qualification.
To receive RPL for a unit, a qualified assessment needs to determine your competency level against the unit criteria, based on your existing skills, knowledge and evidence. Contact us about conducting a free self-assessment to see whether you’re eligible to apply for RPL.
Yes. You can apply for RPL at any stage of your course provided you meet the requirements of evidence. Contact us to undergo a preliminary assessment at no cost.
Everyone is different. We give you three opportunities to present your evidence (i.e. supporting documents) to support your request for RPL. Each time, you have 20 days to provide evidence across three rounds totalling an estimated 3 months.
We will check and re-check all the options for you. If you’re eligible, we will do everything within our policies to help you. If you’re deemed not eligible for RPL, you still have the option to complete the full training online.
No. It would be unethical for us to guarantee RPL for anyone. Every RPL participant is different and managed on an individual basis.
