File the shift while you can still remember it.

Recognition of prior learning for healthcare is the same portfolio, written for the work you actually do. A shift, a ward, a clinic, or a transport job. Not a roof, and not a licence.

You add what you did, where, and when. The portfolio lines that against the units in the qualification. It names what is still missing. A registered training organisation decides. This door does not register you with AHPRA, and it does not make you a nurse, a paramedic, or a dental practitioner.

Start my portfolio I employ the team Read the healthcare note

An enrolled nurse and a support worker smiling in a bright hospital corridor — Your login. The shift you can still describe. The next gap, in one sentence.

What you add

Add one shift you can still picture: the workplace, the date, and what you did. A voice note at the end of the shift is enough to start. A letter from a supervisor can sit beside it. Do not upload a face, a wristband, a medication chart, or anything that names a person in your care.

Competent is only what an assessor records. A full bar on this portfolio is not a registration, not a scope of practice, and not permission to do a procedure you are not already allowed to do.

A support worker smiling in a bright corridor with a folder of notes — A note of what you did is evidence. A patient’s name, face, or clinical record is not.

The qualifications on this door

Each code is the national one. The unit list in the portfolio is the one published for that code. If the register has replaced it, the line says so. An assessor at a registered training organisation still decides.
