“The ease of which I could provide documents and evidence for my RPL request. It was simple and straight forward. I requested RPL for two diplomas – things that I have been doing during my day-to-day for many years during and since leaving Defence. Aimpoint was able to legitimise my experience and knowledge by providing the qualification and recognition of my skills. I would happily recommend Aimpoint to others, veterans or non-veterans.”

“I found Aimpoint’s reputation within the defence community aligned with my career pathway to advance in defence. Aimpoint exceeded my expectations by providing quality education and professional support, making the achievement of my Diploma in Project Management a rewarding experience. I highly recommend Aimpoint to anyone seeking a reliable and efficient path to project management accreditation.”

Saskia Davidson
Aimpoint Graduate
“I recently enquired about gaining some Recognition of Prior learning after a five year absence from The ADF. At every stage the team at Aimpoint were prompt with replies to my enquiries and once started I was totally supported in every step in the process with online help and face to face with one on one assistance. I would not hesitate to recommend Aimpoint Education to anyone transitioning out of the ADF for RPL certification.”
