Prior Learning Assessment Credits?

By Emily On December 3, 2009 1 COMMENT

Hello, and thank you for taking the time to answer my question.

Have you personally submitted a PLA (experiential learning), and received college credits for it? How hard is it? I am left with still many questions about it, I am trying to get moving on it immed. but my University isn’t providing enough info on the website.

I understand it to be formatted in essay style using Kolbs, got that. I further understand that it is to be in APA format, do you include the running header? I see it says not to use references, but to reference source of information, so does that mean to use it in citations page, or not. Can it be in a word doc, or does it have to be a jpg.?

Is there anything else I am unaware of, and should know before submission?

Thanks for all who take the time to answer my question, and

Do you agree that the best way to prove one knows what they say they know is to get another person to learn?

By Emily On November 26, 2009 1 COMMENT

I need to write several essays for experiential credit towards my college degree. I have many years of work experience, but I have not read many books. I find I learn best by getting my hands dirty and just jumping in and asking questions… I use the book, owners manual, instructions as a last resort.
