"The conviction that education is fundamental to employment, and that productive\r\nemployment is central to improved livelihood, underlies several global initiatives. In order\r\nto enhance enterprise competence among the employed workforce, and to cater for the\r\nhuman resource needs in a country, education must respond to global changes and\r\neconomic developments (Gopinathan, 2005). To support the growing need for human\r\ncapacity building, such a response would include lifelong education, formal and nonformal\r\neducation and training, as well as inter-institution collaboration. Central to this\r\nperspective is the recognition of prior learning (RPL), that is, the acknowledgement of\r\ncompetencies accrued through worklife skills, experiential learning and non-formal\r\ntraining against academic learning outcomes and competence standards. However,\r\ngiven the traditionalist posture taken by most Malaysian institutions of higher education,\r\nan emerging issue with regards to the provision of prior learning credit through RPL is\r\nensuring institutional capacity in prior learning assessment and the provision of learning\r\nsupport for students wishing to express prior learning for RPL. This paper discusses a\r\nnumber of issues related to the implementation of RPL, as well as to the mechanisms\r\nused to harness the competence, experience and abilities of employed adults seeking\r\nfurther education."^^ .
