Girl Find Your Experience

Grouped by industry, the external credentials and organization-specific training programs listed on this page have been reviewed for college credit. Students may apply these credits to any part of a degree program, including their major, as long as the credits do not exceed the limitation of transferable credits from any one source and the appropriate documentation is submitted. Scroll through the list below and click the link for details about college credits and related degree programs. For more information on how to get your experience submitted for credit, visit our PLA Portal

Please be advised that the Prior Learning Assessment process and the resulting credit awards are specific to the organization sponsoring the reviewed training program or issuing the reviewed credential.  The credit awards are not transferable to other organizations with similar training programs or credentials. This is because our review process includes academically significant elements and examines common industry standards and curricula.

PLA credit can only be awarded with official documents from the reviewed training source; training programs or certifications with similar names do not qualify for PLA credit. Prior Learning training can be assessed for credit before enrollment, but the student must be enrolled in courses when the credit is posted to their official academic record. Additionally, the last five courses in a student's degree must be taken at RWU | UC. 

All external learning other than an accredited college or university must be submitted to the Director of Prior Learning before being transcribed on the academic record. Documents can be uploaded at the time of application or emailed to ucpla@rwu.edu for Assessment. 

The list below represents common prior learning opportunities, but experiences are continuously being assessed. The University also accepts many experiences approved by the National College Credit Recommendation Service (NCCRS) or by the American Council on Education's CREDIT program.
