When considering RPL for Diploma of Business, you have two choices: firstly, you can take a generalist approach and complete the straight Diploma of Business. This means that you complete a mix of subjects that give a broad coverage of business skills applied in your daily duties.

Prior to BSB50120 Diploma of Business, the earlier version of this qualification was BSB50215 Diploma of Business.
After an extensive review was completed in 2020 of all Australia’s business qualifications, the BSB50215 Diploma of Business was replaced (or it can be called superseded) by the latest version.
The two Diplomas are not a straight match, one for the other. Notice the name was the same but the code has changed.
Whilst the spirit of the earlier qualification BSB50215 aligned with the latest version, there have been a range of changes made to ensure that when you graduate with BSB50120 Diploma of Business, you are possessing the range of skills and knowledge that modern workplaces demand.
