CBOK Examples
In this section you will find RPL
CBOK sections available for download in order to assist
you in the RPL process. As other example
CBOK sections become available, they will be added
under the appropriate sub-section below.
Some people say that as the RPL is
based on personal experience that examples of
others' work is of no use, however I found examples
very useful during my application preparation
and hope others will also find these example
sections of help. I would strongly advise against
using the examples verbatim as they are written from
personal experiences and so will not apply to anyone
else's career and an application containing copied
content will surely be viewed dimly by the ACS.
Due to the fact that each RPL
application takes many hours of hard work to
complete, there is a small charge of £2 for each
section. Each section will be emailed to you on
receipt of payment and will be as submitted to the ACS,
with grammar and spelling mistakes(!) but with
company names removed. Some RPL's contain
only some CBOK sections whereas other contain them all,
if a particular section is available from that RPL, it
is marked as "Not available" under the section heading, see table below.
The whole completed RPL application
form, including Project Reports
can be purchased for each RPL application available for
a fee of £20, see the bottom of each of the CBOK
example sections.
I have now integrated payment using
moneybookers.com,
to enable users who cannot access PayPal to be able to
complete an order. At the moment payment through
moneybookers.com is only available when buying a
complete RPL application, including Project
Reports.
In addition to PayPal and
moneybookers.com payments, I now accept direct bank
transfers. I suggest adding the sections you
require to the PayPal basket, then doing a screen grab
and sending it to me, orders@rplhelp.com, that way I know exactly what you'd like to
order. I will then send you the bank details. Once the payment
has cleared I will then forward the documents on to you.
I can provide email support for questions related to the sections
purchased, however at this time I cannot provide general assistance on the RPL
application process.
The current sections
provided are either my own work or the work of the
contributor and hence the author is the holder
of the copyright, by downloading the contents you are
agreeing that it will only be used for personal use, as
such, if the work is found to be available elsewhere, on
the Internet or otherwise, I will be forced to take
action to have the content removed and seek compensation
for copyright infringement.
The table below gives a quick guide
to the availability of the CBOK sections for each of the
RPL examples. A 'ü' against the appropriate
section in the table indicates that the example RPL has
that CBOK section available. Click on the
appropraite column heading to see the example RPL
specific page.
