Prior Learning Assessment

The Regis University College for Professional Studies (CPS) is one of more than 1500 schools nationwide that awards credit for learning achieved through prior experiences. CPS offers two methods of assessing your prior learning: Prior Learning Assessment (Portfolio) and Testing. Both allow you to demonstrate and document the extent of your knowledge and experience to earn college credit.

Prior Learning Assessment Portfolio

You may earn up to 45 credit hours (the equivalent of 15 college courses) through the Prior Learning Assessment program. In the three-credit Portfolio course (ED202), you will learn how to demonstrate your previous learning for college credit. You are not limited solely to courses offered by Regis, but can access course descriptions from regionally accrediated colleges and universities.

Students have earned Prior Learning Assessment credit by matching their experience to a wide variety of college courses, in areas such as:

Business
Communication
Computer Science
Education
Arts
Physical Education
Social Sciences

The ED202 course is available in both the accelerated classroom format and online. If you are pursuing teacher licensure/certification, the Prior Learning Assessment option is also available to you.
