eRPL application in Peppi

The teacher is responsible for making sure that the credits and grade are entered correctly on the student’s PLP and the transcript of records.

You can find all the eRPL applications students address to you in Peppi on the teacher’s desktop in the eRPL Accreditation drop-down menu. New RPL applications addressed to you will automatically cause an email to be sent to you by the system.

On the first tab, you find the applications for which you must carry out accreditation processing. The processed applications are transferred to the next tab. There are separate tabs for pre-accreditation applications.

The status of an eRPL application sent to you by a student may be one of the following: new application, currently processed or already processed. The status changes as the processing progresses (figure 1).
