We hear it all the time…. “I work somewhat in the marketing or sales field, but I need more education to advance my position. What can I do if I have some work experience in marketing and sales?”

Welcome to Credit for Prior Learning options….

CREDIT FOR PRIOR LEARNING

Credit for Prior Learning (CPL) is academic credit that is awarded to students who can successfully demonstrate college or university-level learning achieved through informal or experiential learning outside of the classroom. You could have your learning evaluated for academic credit, saving you time and money towards earning your degree.

PRIOR LEARNING ASSESSMENT

Our assessments are formally created by faculty or the department and are available in our online learning platform, D2L Brightspace. Assessments take a combination of skills approach. Students may be asked to test, demonstrate, and write to show their learning is college level and is equivalent to the course they are assessing. Students will also be asked to provide pieces of evidence for their learning.
