Exemptions and Credit Transfers come under the broad heading of 'Recognition of Prior Learning'. Recognition of Prior Learning acknowledges any previous training or education you may have done, or any relevant work or life experience you may have gained, through granting various exemptions or credit transfers. Exemptions may free you from having to undertake certain units as they recognise you have already gained the skills through other study, work or life experience. Credit Transfers are granted if you are studying, or have studied, the same unit in another course at Box Hill Institute, or in the same course undertaken at another Institute, so that you don t have to do it again. You can find out if you qualify for any exemptions or credit transfers when you apply.
