The fall 2025 RPL application period is 19 January – 22 February 2026. In this application period you can apply for RPL for study modules scheduled for autumn 2026 or later.
If you think that you already have the competence that a study module of your curriculum provides, you can apply for RPL. You can apply for full or partial RPL accreditation for a study module using the online form available in https://my.diak.fi/ -> Studies -> eRPL Service.
Written guidelines for eRPL application are available at Screensteps.

RPL is applied in advance, which means that you can apply for RPL for studies that are scheduled for the upcoming semesters in the curriculum of your group. You cannot apply for RPL to cover courses that are scheduled for the ongoing semester or previous semesters. First semester is an exception, new students can apply for RPL also for study modules taking place in the first semester. You can only apply for RPL with a certificate, which means that you have to have finished the course or work experience before using it for RPL.
Fill in the eRPL application carefully with all the required details. Read carefully the learning outcomes of the study module that you wish to RPL and reflect what skills, knowledge and competences you have that correspond with the learning outcomes.
