维多利亚大学酒店管理、旅游和会展学院的院长Nic Beredimas介绍到“很多人并不知道他们自己的工作经验可以经评估折算，获取在酒店管理或者旅游方向的正式TAFE学历。”
Nic 说“维多利亚大学现在拥有一套在线评估工具，可以为已有的工作经验进行评估。”
“任何正在酒店业或旅游业工作的，没有正式学历或只是具有部分学历的人，都可以通过维多利亚在线评估中心进行评估，衡量他们的工作经验是否可获取证书或文凭学历。”
要使已有的工作经验得到认证要经过7个步骤，分别是：登陆、选择目标学历和任何已有学历、选择寻找认证的单元类别、下载完整的简历、注册目标学历、进行个人工作经验评估。

"Many people don't realise that their work experience can count towards getting a formal TAFE qualification in hospitality or tourism," according to Nic Beredimas, Head of Victoria University's School of Hospitality, Tourism and Events.
Nic says: "VU now has an online assessment tool to assess existing qualifications and experience."
"Anybody who is currently working in the hospitality or tourism industries and has no formal qualification or only a partial qualification can access the VU assessment centre online and evaluate whether or not their existing experience might count in a towards a certificate or diploma."
The seven stages to recognition of existing experience are - log in; select target qualification and outline any existing qualification; select units in which they are seeking recognition; upload completed resume; enrol in target qualification; personal assessment of existing qualification or workplace assessment.
