The Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) process allows you to have the skills you’ve developed through your experience recognized in order to earn all or part of the CEFAM “Manager of International Organizations” credential, which is state-certified at Level 7. This process is intended for individuals who wish to have their professional experience or activities related to the targeted certification recognized, regardless of their age, educational background, or status.
The initiative specifically covers:
Situations that do not meet the specified criterion: Experience unrelated to the content of the targeted credential does not satisfy the requirement that there be a connection between the activity performed and the certification sought. Any other potential grounds for ineligibility should be confirmed with the VAE coordinator.
CEFAM reviews your resume and schedules an interview to determine whether your application is a good fit. If it is, you will be briefed on the professional and administrative aspects of the VAE process.
You prepare Booklet 1. The VAE coordinator reviews your application and issues a favorable or unfavorable decision regarding your candidacy.
An orientation meeting is held between the applicant and the VAE coordinator. It serves to identify the skills you have acquired through your work experience and to determine which ones will need to be supplemented through training.
After completing the administrative registration, you will put together your application packet, known as "Booklet 2," as well as your supporting documents.
You can prepare your application on your own, be assisted by someone recommended by CEFAM, or choose your own advisor, provided the school approves them.
