Prior Learning Accreditation

Prior Learning Accreditation is a formal academic process within the domain of educational assessment that identifies, evaluates, and grants credit for an individual’s competencies acquired through experiential, informal, or non-traditional learning pathways, distinguishing it from conventional academic accreditation by its reliance on evidence-based validation of prior learning outcomes.
