    What portfolio evidence is accepted?

    Drawings, documentation sets and project files you personally produced, with employer or client verification of your role.

    Is this just RPL?

    No. It is a proper training and assessment program that recognises the experience you bring, under standard RPL and credit transfer rules.

    Do I need CAD software experience?

    Yes. The program assumes you already produce documentation using industry software.

    Who this is for

    This program is for drafters already producing residential documentation who want the qualification to match. You are likely a good fit if you: - currently produce residential drawings and documentation; - can supply a portfolio of work you personally produced; - understand the codes and standards that apply to residential work. You are probably not a good fit if you have no drafting output to evidence.

    Cost, timing and what happens after training

    What happens next

    1. You submit the eligibility form above.
    2. An OnShift adviser (real person, not a bot) reviews your background against this program's suitability criteria.
    3. We contact you — usually within one business day — with a plain-English recommendation. If this program doesn't suit you, we say so.
    4. If it does suit you, we walk you through fees, staging, and readiness before any enrolment is confirmed.

    Licensing requirements vary by state and may change. Completing training does not guarantee that a licence or supervisor authorisation will be granted. Applicants may also need to meet experience, qualification, identity and other regulator requirements. Confirm the current requirements that apply to you directly with the relevant state regulator before enrolling.
