  10. Key Principles • Subsidiarity to local academic Department with supportive over-sight by Faculty and Academic Quality Assurance. • Transparency of procedures and assessment criteria • Tools and documents that are appropriate and fit-for-purpose Dr Anne Murphy, DIT, July 2013 anne.murphy@dit.ie

  11. Is there anything new in this RPL example? • No external panel or jury • Locally ‘Normalisation’ into: • curriculum design and documentation • progression awards pathways • academic quality and assessment regulations • student records Particularly, it encourages capacity building of staff at the local level to use RPL to meet local needs Dr Anne Murphy, DIT, July 2013 anne.murphy@dit.ie

  12. Other advantages for expansion of RPL • It is not TOP-DOWN • It is not POLICY-DRIVEN • It uses local expert knowledge of how knowledge, skills and competences operate in the sector • It attracts the confidence of colleagues as a locally-designed and quality assured process • It builds local capacity better than external training and external examples. Dr Anne Murphy, DIT, July 2013 anne.murphy@dit.ie

  13. Acknowledgements Thanks to my colleagues in the Department of Transport Engineering, Dublin Institute of Technology in design and implementation of this RPL mechanism for staff. The challenge now is to scale up the model for external applicants and to extend the process to other qualifications fields. Dr Anne Murphy, DIT, July 2013 anne.murphy@dit.ie
