EVAL1006 - Credential/Portfolio 4 Credit - Eval 3
Course Description
Credential Evaluation is the process of recognizing and equating to Northern Essex Community College courses, learning that has been achieved within a non-collegiate educational program of study conducted by one or more qualified instructors. Through credit by credential evaluation, students may earn credit for off-campus professional training that compares to Northern Essex Community College course work. Credit considerations include: Course work and training conducted by the military, Business and industry, Post-secondary schools that are not regionally accredited and other organizations whose primary purpose is not education.
A Learning Portfolio is an instrument used by students to petition to receive college credit. This student-prepared document outlines, in depth, the learning gained outside the college classroom and shows the relationship to college-level learning. The portfolio is not merely a study of accumulated knowledge, but rather an examination of learned life experiences discussed in essays and presented through publicly verifiable documentation. Students should prove to an expert in the field that they possess the claimed learning.
There is a $40.00 non-refundable administrative fee and a $50 per credit fee due in advance of the evaluation process.
