how to earn

To earn your Bachelor level or Master level certificate, you are required to be at least 18 years old, and have at least two years of prior learning/work/professional life experience in your preferred area of knowledge. We realize that some of the most effective learning does not come from a textbook, but from real experiences and hands-on learning. We understand that what you have learned in the classroom or boardroom is valuable and that is why we formally acknowledge your accomplishments in the form of proper credentials. Below are some examples that we define as prior learning:

• Job experience in any field

• Educational achievements

• Volunteer activities

• Professional/corporate training/certificates

• National testing

• Independent research projects/self-directed study

• Community service/voluntarism

• Employer-sponsored training and workshops

• Participation in professional and non-professional organizations

• Military service or training

• Job assessments/peer review

You may have other accomplishments other than those mentioned above. We evaluate and consider all information that is included in your Professional Experiential Portfolio.
