Is Credit Transfer (CT) available?

We recognise qualifications and Statements of Attainment that you’ve received from other Registered Training Organisations (RTOs). This means you may be able to apply for a Credit Transfer if you’ve already completed the same or equivalent units elsewhere.

To apply, you’ll need to provide your original Qualification or Statement of Attainment, or certified copies. These documents must clearly show the national codes and titles so we can match them with the units in your current course. Credit Transfer can also be given for equivalent units from older qualifications, as long as they are listed as equivalent in the current Training Package.

All documents must be valid, issued by a registered RTO, and meet national standards. As part of the enrolment process, we’ll verify your documents either by contacting the issuing RTO directly or by checking through the Unique Student Identifier (USI) registry.
