The modules at the lower levels in each stream describe prerequisite skills. Note that students may possess these skills prior to commencement of the course and in this case can start at the appropriate higher level without the necessity for undertaking RPL. A successful completion of the higher module is evidence of completion of the lower module in each stream.
Students may also start at different points and/or progress at different rates in each stream.


Additionally, any module or unit from an accredited course or Training Package can be imported for use as an elective, subject to compliance with the assessment guidelines from the original qualification. These electives are to be selected with consideration of the needs of students as individuals and/or as a group.
