On their path to a postsecondary degree, today’s learners often acquire college-level learning from multiple sources, including work experience, military service, non-credit vocational credentials, and lived experience. By formally assessing and awarding Credit for Prior Learning (CPL), colleges and universities can provide students a faster, more flexible, and more affordable path to a degree.
In a new project, developed in collaboration with College Unbound and generously supported by the Ichigo Foundation, Ithaka S+R will explore how Credit for Prior Learning can be expanded and applied to incarcerated and formerly incarcerated learners.
