RPL Partnership: Merit Medical and Atlantic Technological University

Merit Medical Galway have successfully collaborated with Atlantic Technological University down through the years. In this video, they discuss the value that RPL has brought to the company.

The Bachelor of Science Quality for Industry (Level 7) programme at ATU was co-developed with industry, making it a popular choice for employees in the Medtech sector as it aligns with, and complements existing skills. Many employees at Merit Medical have gained access to this programme via RPL. 

Hear first-hand how RPL is a valuable process in helping employees to reflect on and demonstrate their prior learning in order to gain new qualifications and address skills gaps. We hear how RPL learners bring real-life experiences to lectures and contribute greatly to learning. RPL supports greater engagement with industry partners across the region, benefitting enterprise, the university and the learners. 

For anyone who is interested in RPL but who may not have an existing formal qualification, you are encouraged to explore RPL as an option.
