Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL)

Published On: June 15, 2022 06:30 AM NPT By: Sanjeeb Kumar Panthee

For learning to take place, there is no need to have a defined place or institute. In fact, we can learn anywhere and anytime through different means.

In our society, people who acquire competency through informal learning never get their skills recognized. This has created strata in society and divided us based on work/occupation.
