Our upcoming webinar will explore the role that the Recognition of Prior Learning can play in integrating newcomers into higher education in Ireland.

We have lined up a distinguished list of speakers who will share their extensive knowledge of RPL from a learner, policy maker and practitioner's point of view. They will shed light on the significant role RPL can play in integrating newcomers into higher education in Ireland.

The webinar has four primary aims:

• To explore the role and benefits of RPL in integrating newcomers in higher education.

• To raise awareness and understanding about the application of RPL in higher education.

• To provide some practical insights into how to do this.

• To situate RPL within the wider context of activity to integrate newcomers in higher education, including NARIC Ireland and the National Student and Researcher Helpdesk.
