RMIT Plus

RMIT Plus

RMIT Plus is a free, self-paced, co-curricular skills recognition program designed to help you build your life and work skills.

Balancing academic excellence with the development of essential human skills is crucial for thriving in both life and work, and skills like communication, teamwork, time management, and problem-solving are key to your success.

RMIT Plus recognises your current co-curricular experiences and introduces you to new opportunities like volunteering, mentoring, networking, industry and career activities, and self-development experiences.

When you successfully complete RMIT Plus, it will be recorded on your academic transcript.
