How Does CPL Work?
Students can earn credit for prior learning by demonstrating college-level knowledge they gained outside the classroom. Working with a college, university, or other training provider, students can earn credit through exams, portfolios, or other individualized assessments, and evaluation of noncollege and noncredit programs.
Credit for prior learning (CPL) is a term for the various methods that colleges, universities, and other education/training providers use to evaluate and formally recognize learning that has occurred outside of the traditional academic environment. It is used to grant college credit, certification, or advanced standing toward further education or training. Other common terms for this process include prior learning assessment (PLA) and recognition of prior learning. It saves students time and money by awarding credit for college-level learning acquired outside of the classroom.
