This credit designation enables students to maximize the amount of credits they can earn for what they already know. College-designated subject matter experts evaluate the college-level knowledge and skills an individual has gained outside of the classroom for college credit. This evaluation is called Prior Learning Assessment (PLA). Prior Learning is learning gained in a variety of settings and through formal and non-formal means, including but not limited to: apprenticeship, workplace training, professional certifications, military training and service.Upon completion of this course, students should be able to: Identify college-level knowledge gained outside of classroom. Assemble a portfolio for evaluation. Identify career advancement and degree completion goals. Create a professional Education Plan.
