The College recognizes that students may request work-based learning course credit for prior learning using apprenticeships, certifications and licensures, courses listed in high school to community college articulation agreements, military education and training, standardized examinations, challenge examinations, portfolio assessments, and public safety training prefix courses consistent with College policy and State Board of Community College code 1D SBCCC 800.2.
To ensure optimum management and student opportunities, students must follow the below procedures to request a prior learning assessment ("PLA"):
Academic departments determine the specific procedures they utilize to grant course credit, course waivers, or prerequisite overrides and determine the scores or outcomes required for such consideration.
Students who wish to receive credit for prior learning must consult with the dean of the College department that offers courses in that area. Such requests will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. The dean’s decision for CPL is final.
