ACADEMIC CREDIT, RECOGNISED PRIOR LEARNING (RPL) AND TRANSFER POLICY
SAE Institute offers opportunities for prospective students with considerable industry experience and/or previous academic qualifications to apply for recognition of prior learning. The precise nature of advanced standing will vary according to individual circumstances and will be dependent on the nature of the course being applied for. Outlined below are various typical options.
Applicants who hold a qualification from another accredited institution, or have formally completed components of another qualification, should submit authorised evidence of those achievements to SAE Institute. These will be reviewed by the relevant Course Coordinator and an appropriate determination made about the amount and kind of work that will have to be undertaken in order to complete the qualification sought.
Applicants direct from the industry, having no formal qualifications, should submit with their application form a comprehensive portfolio documenting their activities and achievements. These will be reviewed by the relevant Course Coordinator, and an appropriate determination made about the amount and kind of work that will need to do to be undertaken complete the qualification sought.
Any previous SAE Institute award may be used to substantiate a claim for advanced standing towards a further program of study with SAE Institute. Calculation of RPL allowance will depend on the qualification being sought.
