Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) is a platform to provide recognition to the learning through work to get equal acceptance as the formal levels of education. In short, RPL is a process of assessment of an individual’s prior learning to give due importance to learning as an outcome rather than learning as process The objectives of RPL are primarily three-fold:
- To align the competencies of the un-regulated workforce of the country to the standardized National Skills Qualification Framework (NSQF),
- To enhance the career/employability opportunities of an individual as well as provide alternative routes to higher education and
- To provide opportunities for reducing inequalities based on privileging certain forms of knowledge over others.

Let’s read about Pradip who underwent RPL in Food and Beverage Steward Course
Pradip belongs to a very small village in Varanasi. His father was the only earning member of the family and it was very difficult for him to support his family financially especially in funding the education of all his kids. Pradip had to give up his studies in order to support his family financially. At first he worked at a small stationery shop to help his father.
He then heard about the RPL training program conducted by Orion Edutech and enrolled himself in the Food & Beverage Steward Course under RPL. He says the training was very helpful and he learned a lot of things. The soft skill training helped him become more confident and he is able to handle his customers well. He is happy and would like to thank the trainers at Orion Edutech for giving him this opportunity to learn.
