Human Resources have experienced a busy year within AIFE as we ensure a high quality of services for all staff. We would like to give a warm welcome to all the admin staff that has entered AIFE in the months of October, November and December. In our Compliance department we have Natalia Danilova, Shannon Marsh and Vera Gruber. Within our IT team we have Nicole Reardon, Danny Liu, Matthew Oh, Matthew Swarzes and James Looi. Within our Student Services department we have Sarah Bates, Sherry Liang and Sophie Barrett. We also have a new addition to our Accounts team Henry Shing. We hope that they continue to develop their skills and knowledge throughout the college.

Course Credit
Course credit relates to the learning achieved through formal education and training. In this process the initial unit/unit of competency/module is assessed against the new unit/unit of competency/module to determine the extent to which it is equivalent to the required learning, competency outcomes, or standards in a qualification.
AIFE will recognize the AQF qualifications and Statements of Attainment issued by another RTO.
Applications for course credit will also be considered from students who can provide other evidence of competency in the units of the course. This should be provided on or before enrolment.
Applicants are advised that the granting of course credit may result in the shortening of the duration of their student visa.
Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL)
Recognition of Prior Learning relates to the learning achieved outside the formal education and training system. It is an assessment process that assesses the individual’s non-formal and informal learning. This may include any combination of formal or informal training and education, work experience or general life experience to determine the extent to which that individual has achieved the required learning outcomes, competency outcomes, or standards for entry to, and/or partial or total completion of, a qualification.
