Info Session: Turn Prior Experience into Course Credit

Are you considering attending Algonquin College? Do you have prior work, life, or academic experience? If so, please join us for a presentation on Credit Transfer and PLAR: two services to help you turn your previous experience into course credit. Presented by Tessa Foster, PLAR Coordinator in Academic Development.

Credit Transfer

The Credit Transfer/Exemption process can help you receive course credit for your previous post-secondary studies.

Prior Learning Assessment and Recognition

PLAR (Prior Learning Assessment and Recognition) allows you to receive course credit for non-academic life experience, such as paid employment, community work, independent study, on-the-job training, volunteering, or travel and leisure.
