It evaluates the following areas in alignment with the Australian Core Skills Framework (ACSF) and the Australian Digital Capability Framework (ADCF): Learning, Reading, Writing, Oral Communication, Numeracy, and Digital Capability. RTOs are required to conduct initial skills assessments for all students in accordance with the Standards for Registered Training Organisations 2025.  

All students are required to complete this pre-enrolment skills assessment prior to entry into a course. The purpose of this assessment is to determine whether you may require additional support to complete the course successfully. This way, we can tell you prior to your enrolment if we are able to provide the level of support you require or if you might need to seek support from external agencies. When you book in for your Pre-enrolment Session, you will be able to download a practice assessment. This will allow you to practice the assessment before attending the session. 

If your ACSF or ADCF levels are not able to be supported by Cple, we will refer you to external support prior to enrolment with us. Cple recognise that whilst effective training and assessment processes will occur during your enrolment with us, tutoring services are outside of the scope of our qualifications. Support networks we will refer you to include but are not limited to:  

Navitas English Canberra: offers free Language, Literacy and Numeracy (LLN) development classes for eligible candidates. 
CIT: offers various courses to develop reading and writing skills. 
The Reading and Writing hotline: Is a resource that offers support in developing LLN skills in all areas. 
BBC Skillswise: offers activities for practising and developing your LLN skills.
Be Connected: Australian Government initiative designed to increase the online skills of Australians.   

Information on the Australian Core Skills Framework (ACSF) can be found here. 
Information on the Australian Digital Capability Framework (ADCF) can be found here. 

For all of our qualifications, Cple groups these units together based on topics – these topics are called ‘Modules’. Each module, contains carefully designed assessments to assist you to achieve success in the qualification, while gaining theoretical and practical knowledge and skills.  

When you enrol with Cple, you will be assigned an Assessment Schedule which will outline when you will start and complete each ‘Module’ (topic). The online system, ‘Canvas’, and your Trainer/Assessor will assist you to complete your assessments.  

Cple uses a combination of assessment methods to ensure that all learning styles are considered. These methods include written knowledge checks, project-based tasks, role plays, and practical demonstrations. Our Trainer/Assessors also take the time to provide detailed feedback on your assessment submissions to ensure you always feel supported. 

More information regarding assessment methods is included in the detailed outlines for each qualification.  

We will then verify and assess documentation if eligible CT or RPL outcomes will be granted to the student. 

When you apply for RPL, you are essentially saying ‘I already know all about this unit, so I don’t need training’. RPL is an assessment process only and no training is provided. 

Please note, RPL is not necessarily a quick process. You will be required to collate and coordinate evidence to show that you have sufficient, valid, and current knowledge and skills equivalent to the qualification you are enrolled in. Your skills will be assessed against industry standards. This is done by a Cple Trainer & Assessor. 

Please refer to our Student Handbook for further information on RPL. 

However, the Certificate III requires students to work with children aged 0-2 years. If you are not working within the sector, or for the Certificate III, are not working with children aged 0-2 years, you will be required to arrange a practical work placement for these Early Childhood qualifications.  

The CHC50125 Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care includes pre-requisite requirements that are outlined on the Qualification Overview page.

Cple has an obligation to ensure the quality and support we provide you through our administration and training services, meets the requirements of the Standards for Registered Training Organisations 2025 which form part of the VET Quality Framework. 

To ensure compliance is upheld in the delivery of your training and assessment, internal policies, procedures, and systems guide our operations. 

As part of our registration, Cple is expected to participate in audit processes with our State Training Authority, Skills Canberra (STA) and ASQA upon request. In addition, we must ensure that any third parties who have any involvement in your training and assessment, agree to a third-party arrangement with Cple and will comply with training requirements accordingly. 

If at any time you feel that we have not met our obligations as an RTO, you have the right to make a complaint following our Complaints Policy – located on the RTO Policies and Procedures page.
