Questions building and construction people ask
Do I need to go back to school?
No. You work through 19 units with the guide, at your own pace, and add evidence as you find it.
What counts as evidence?
Photos of finished work, job records, licences, and people who can vouch for you. Typical examples for this qualification: A statement from a team member, Client feedback, Copies of documents you produced.
How long does it take?
As long as you need — most people spread it over several sessions while they gather documents and photos. There's no deadline.
Who decides if I get the qualification?
Your RTO's assessor, not this tool. We help you build a complete, well-organised portfolio; they make the assessment decision.
What does it cost?
Building it is free. $579 buys six months' access to finish and export it, and shorter and longer terms are offered at checkout. Your RTO's own assessment fee is separate and paid to them, not to us.
Not ready yet? Read the guide to Certificate IV in Building and Construction RPL — the full unit list, the evidence to gather, and when RPL is the wrong route.
Who assesses it
We prepare the portfolio. A registered training organisation assesses it and issues the qualification — that part is never us, and this page never pretends otherwise.
The national register lists every RTO approved to deliver and / or assess CPC40120, with the states each one covers and the dates their approval runs to. It is the authoritative list and it is kept current, so we link to it rather than keeping a copy that would go stale:
RTOs approved for CPC40120 on training.gov.au
Being on that list means an RTO can assess this qualification. It does not mean they will assess a portfolio you prepared somewhere else — some do, some only assess their own enrolled students. So ask two questions when you call:
- Do you accept an RPL application with evidence I have gathered myself?
- What is your RPL assessment fee, and what do you need from me to start?
Their fee is separate from ours, and it is theirs to quote.
