Are you eligible for the Certificate IV in Government (Investigations) via Recognition of Prior Learning due to your previous training and work experience?
You can obtain the Certificate IV in Government (Investigations) if you have previous investigation training and operational experience. This is achieved through an assessment of your prior learning and operational experience. The fee is less than about 40% of the full training costs and you don't have to spend time re-learning what you already know.
The Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) process is not easy. Your previous experience and training will be rigorously assessed. You will be required to provide evidence that your relevant training, education and operational work meets the requirements of the Certificate IV in Government (Investigations) qualification. Don’t be fooled, you won’t meet the requirements if you don’t have the training or experience within the investigations arena.
Obtaining Certificate IV in Government (Investigations) doesn’t guarantee you will secure employment in the public sector because it’s a competitive market. Please consider carefully your chances of securing work in this sector before committing to obtaining your Certificate IV in Government (Investigations).
