94.3 the Wolf Country That'll Make You Howl!
State education officials are encouraging colleges and universities to recognize prior learning experiences.
The Council on Postsecondary Education says the Kentucky Student Success Collaborative has launched a year-long initiative aimed at encouraging Kentucky colleges and universities to award academic credit for knowledge gained through work, military, or life experiences.
The CPE says practices like credit for prior learning signal that higher education is for everyone and not just recent high school graduates. Research from the Council for Adult and Experiential Learning shows credit for prior learning boosts college enrollment, retention, and completion among nontraditional college students.
The CPE will be working with a select group of colleges and universities to work on introducing CPL practices. The participating campuses will receive coaching from national experts that contributed to a CPL model introduced at Jefferson Community and Technical College.
Expanding CPL is one of several strategies that have been identified in Kentucky’s Adult Learner Action Plan which is aimed at increasing post-traditional adult enrollment. The state has set a goal of increasing the number of working-age Kentuckians with a postsecondary credential to 60 percent by 2030.
