What is blended learning?
Blended learning combines the convenience of online training with recognition of prior learning (RPL). It aims to provide a comprehensive learning experience that leverages the benefits of digital training resources and workplace simulations via remote learning and allows students to gain credit for previous experience.

What is self-paced learning?
Self-paced learning is an approach where learners have the freedom to determine their own learning speed and schedule. They can access resources and study materials online, enabling them to learn independently and progress through the material at a comfortable pace. This method is particularly advantageous for individuals with varying schedules and learning preferences, as it offers a flexible and personalised learning experience. Self-paced learning comes with full support from the Techskill support team, including support by industry trainers and assessors through your student portal.

What is Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL)?
Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) is a process that recognises the skills, knowledge, and competencies individuals have acquired through previous formal education, work experiences, or informal learning. Through RPL, learners can receive credit or exemptions from specific parts of a formal educational program, streamlining their learning journey and tailoring it to their existing expertise. This approach is especially beneficial for adults and professionals seeking to further their education.
