From Brownie leaders to befrienders, volunteers play a vital role in keeping communities thriving across Scotland — and is the perfect time to celebrate them.

At the SCQF Partnership, we’re passionate about making sure all learning counts. Skills and knowledge gained through volunteering deserve to be recognised and can help support progression into education, training and careers.

Thinking about returning to education? Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) can help formally recognise the learning and skills you’ve gained through volunteering and other experiences.

RPL could help you:
▫️Gain entry to college or university courses, even if you don't meet the admission requirements
▫️Gain exemption from modules - so you don't have to repeat learning
▫️Access advanced entry to university courses - you could start in 2nd, or even 3rd year

Recognition of Prior Learning is a powerful way to reflect on the learning that happens outside formal education — because learning happens everywhere.
