Students must have a personal computer and access to internet to access all learning resources, online library, and assessments, communicate with educators, fellow students, support services etc.
Assessment strategies are implemented for collecting evidence and making judgements about whether competency has been achieved by the learner.
The assessments confirm whether an individual can perform to the standards expected in the workplace, as expressed in the relevant endorsed unit of competency.
There are several processes that allow students to have their current skills and experience recognized.
Credit transfer and National Recognition.
Credit transfer is recognition of study already completed which counts towards further study. Credit transfer involves assessing a previously completed course or subject to see if it provides equivalent outcomes to those required within the current course of study.
If you have an appropriate statement of attainment from another RTO for this identical unit, then credit transfer is automatically awarded. The copy must be signed by an authorized signatory or the original must be shown to our nominated trainer and assessor.
If it is for a very similar course, the assessor must be able to understand what the learning outcomes were from the course/subject you did, so that they can map these against the elements of competency. Therefore, you MUST have some official documentation that records what the learning outcomes were, such as a Statement of Result or an academic transcript.
If you are seeking a credit transfer from Micon Training, you will need to contact our office and speak with the nominated trainer & assessor for the necessary application procedure. Students cannot receive credit for their whole program of study; at least one competency must be achieved through normal enrolment or recognition of prior learning.
Recognition of prior learning (RPL)
Recognition of prior learning is the process that recognizes a student’s current skills and experience regardless of where and when the learning occurred. Applications for RPL are based on a complete unit(s).
Students can base their application on any combination of formal or informal training and education, work experience or general life experience.
Anyone wishing to undertake an entire program, course or individual module can apply for RPL. In deciding whether you may already have competency in a module/unit, the following must be considered:
Applicants who are unsuccessful in their RPL process have a right to formally appeal any RPL assessment, through our appeals procedure.

Please note that confidentiality is an extremely important part of the RPL process. It is important that sensitive information is not disclosed. You should:

There are several processes that allow students to have their current skills and experience recognized.
A USI is required by all Australians undertaking nationally recognized training. It allows students to link to a secure online record of all qualifications gained regardless of the provider. This system was implemented by the Australian Government in 2015, so it will show student achievements from 1 January 2015 onwards.
As an RTO, Micon Training cannot issue Certificates or Statements of Attainment without a USI. Therefore, it is mandatory that all students supply their USI upon enrolment. If you do not have a USI, please visit https://www.usi.gov.au/students/create-your-usi for more information, and instructions on how to apply.
Your USI will help keep your training records and results together in an online account controlled by you. Each time you enroll to study with a new training organization, your USI will be used to store your training records and results.
By having a USI you will be able to access your training records and results (or transcript) whenever you need them. For example, for a new employer or when you enroll to study at a new training organization. Your USI can be accessed online from your computer, tablet or smart phone and gives you access to your training records and results at your fingertips. For further information about the USI can be found at: http://www.usi.gov.au/Pages/default.aspx
Should a USI exemption apply, the student is made aware prior to enrolment or training that their training results will not be accessible through the Commonwealth and will not appear on any authenticated VET transcript prepared by the USI Registrar.
