Credit for Experiential Learning
Credit for experiential learning may be awarded for required external work experience courses (cooperative education, internship, clinical, practicum) in the curriculum provided the learning is documented and achievement of all outcomes for the courses is demonstrated. Documentation will include how such learning was evaluated and the basis on which such credit was awarded. This credit (not to include the capstone course) must not duplicate credit already awarded. Credit can only be given in one course for the same experiential learning. Capstone external work experience credit may be awarded during the last semester before graduation. Refer to the Vernon College Catalog for specific course degree plans. A $25 fee is charged for each course recorded to an academic transcript.
