IFPRA International Qualification Scheme
Entry by Recognition of Experience
The Federation recognises that career development in the
Parks and Recreation industry may be based upon experience,
rather than qualifications. Candidates seeking to entry the
Federation’s Qualification Scheme, who have not previously
acquired appropriate academic qualifications may apply for
entry by recognition of prior experience.
The eligibility of Candidates who do not hold relevant
professional qualifications for entry in the IFPRA
Qualification Scheme will be assessed on the candidate’s
prior experience. In the case of the Level I Award, this
should suggest a good understanding of the Park and
Recreation industry in the country of employment. In the
case of the (Dip) Award, managerial ability at a senior
level in the country of employment is expected.
Recognition of Prior Experience will take account of:
- the candidate’s present job responsibilities
- the candidate’s overall length of service in the
industry
- any relevant awards
- the candidate’s commitment to professional
development
Assessment will be made from the information contained on
the Candidate’s Statement of Entry Requirements. If
necessary, further information may be requested. |
