CAEL’s mission is to promote lifelong learning and to remove policy and organizational barriers to learning. We do so through our work with businesses, labor unions, public policy makers, and colleges and universities.

If you are an individual looking to further your education, we recommend that you seek out higher education institutions that offer “Prior Learning Assessment (PLA),” giving you college credit for your lifetime accomplishments. To help you evaluate your own experiences, we recommend reading the book, Earn College Credit for What You Know.
