Can credit transfers be applied across different AQF levels?

Answer

Credit transfer is offered for a unit of competency or module, and not for a qualification. Units of competency are not assigned an AQF level.

Where a student has been found competent in a unit of competency, they have demonstrated they have met all requirements of that unit. A student may complete a unit of competency as part of a qualification and then seek to have that unit recognised in another qualification that may be of a different AQF level.

Providing the qualification packaging rules allow it, an RTO must accept and provide credit to the student for that unit of competency.
