Veteran Support
At Wodonga TAFE, we understand that your experiences, both in service and beyond hold real value. That’s why our Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) for Veterans Program is at the heart of how we support Victorian; veterans, Defence Force personnel, and their families transition to civilian life through education and beyond.
RPL is about more than just paperwork. It’s about recognising your hard-earned skills, knowledge, and experience; whether gained through military service, previous study, work, or life, so you can fast-track your education and move toward new career goals with confidence.
We work with you to map what you already know against nationally recognised qualifications, helping you avoid repeating learning you’ve already mastered. This approach saves time, reduces costs, and honours your journey. By focusing on what you need to gain new employment or to improve your current position, the effort required is aimed at a measurable outcome for you.
