ADU 200 - Assessment of Prior Learning


3 credits
Prior Learning Assessment (PLA) is the process of earning college credit for demonstration and documentation of learning from non-classroom experiences such as work, professional training, military careers, volunteering, and personal life. This course guides students through the identification, preparation, and compilation of all components required for the evaluation of prior learning through the development of a portfolio. Students use critical reflection skills to analyze the value of their learning, its implications for future learning. Adult learning theory, models, and concepts are discussed and applied to case studies.
