      Best Practice in RPL in South Africa

      • Categories RPL
      • Date 08/07/2019

       

       

      Chartall Business College represents South Africa at the 3rd VPL Biennale in Germany

       

      Dr Karen Deller from Chartall Business College presented a paper at the third VPL Biennale in Berlin, Germany on the 7th May 2019.  This is the third VPL conference to be held in Europe and its key objective was to draft and adopt a declaration on VPL (or RPL as we know it in South Africa) to pave the road for a stronger and more sustainable implementation of VPL throughout both Europe and the world.

      The VPL Biennale was a great conference to share knowledge, ideas and visions on RPL and over 350 RPL practitioners from far and wide attended the two-day conference.  Key themes of the conference presentations included exploring creative ways of funding, legitimising, conducting and following up on VPL.

      Dr Deller showcased an example of best practice in RPL from South Africa.  Her conference paper was titled “Putting the candidate at the centre with an online RPL portal” and she presented the benefits of the online RPL portal that Chartall Business College created for BANKSETA (www.rplbankseta.org.za) and its role in enabling both RPL, as well as progression post-RPL. You can read the details of her presentation here: VPL Presentation

      Besides the actual presentation, the conference organisers ran a competition for the best international RPL practices.  The Chartall Business College submission was placed third out of over 28 shortlisted entries.  Quite an honour, and very humbling, to be selected for recognition by such an esteemed gathering.

      On Wednesday 10th July 2019 Chartall Business College has scheduled a repeat of Dr Deller’s presentation online.  If you are interested in attending, you can log in via our website here: Webinar series

      Karen Deller

      (DLitt (HRM), MA (HRM), BA (Hon – Industrial Psychology)

      Karen is one part entrepreneur, two parts passionate-developer-of-working-adults, one part adventurer & scuba diver, one part mother & wife & daughter. Which is too many parts – but what does one leave out?

      She has been involved in adult education and training for over 30 years and the past 20 have been spent theorising about, writing about and actually doing recognition of prior learning (RPL). Her focus is on RPL in the workplace for formal credentialing, and this was the basis of the research that saw her awarded a DLitt by the University of Johannesburg in 2007.

      Karen trains on a number of full and partial qualifications, from subjects on the BBA degree to short courses in sales and human resources management. She always draws on her many years of experience and shares many personal stories and lessons.

      Karen subscribes to the sage advice of Dr Seuss when advising RPL candidates and her learners:
      “You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You're on your own. And you know what you know. And YOU are the one who'll decide where to go...”
