Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) – Life Sciences Sector Skill Development Council (LSSSDC)

The Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) initiative by the Life Sciences Sector Skill Development Council (LSSSDC) is designed to formally recognize the existing skills and industry experience of professionals working in the Life Sciences sector.

This initiative aligns practical industry knowledge with national occupational standards, offering certifications that enhance credibility, career prospects, and overall employability.
