Credit for Prior Learning
There are two ways to obtain Centennial College credit for prior learning:
- Transfer Credit – You may be granted transfer credit at Centennial for courses you have taken at an accredited postsecondary college or university.
- Prior Learning Assessment and Recognition (PLAR) – PLAR helps you demonstrate learning acquired through past study or work. You may obtain PLAR credit by going through a challenge process which may include an exam, interview, portfolio, or other mechanism.
You are encouraged to apply for any of these credits if you think you are eligible. The maximum number of credits allowed is 75% of your program credits.
Course Requirements – Course Outlines
Course outlines specify relevant course learning outcomes to be achieved and assessments that measure achievement of that learning. Course outlines also offer a general description of the course, its content, requirements, and required learning resources (e.g., textbooks, equipment/materials). Course outlines also offer a general description of the course, its content, requirements, and learning resources. Course outlines clearly communicate expectations to learners concerning requirements for admission to the course (e.g.., pre- and co-requisites), successful completion of the course, and other course-specific policies and procedures. Ensure you review the course outlines for each of your courses to be aware of requirements and expectations.
