How can the Assessment of Prior Experiental Learning Programme (AP(E)L) programme help me?
The programme helps those with higher education level or professional qualifications from their own countries to prepare an effective portfolio of evidence of experience and learning that can be used to gain exemption from university or as a presentation to potential employers. This can be very useful, particularly for those who do not have documents to prove qualifications or experience. The course also focuses on cultural re-orientation and personal development. By the end of the programme, students understand UK systems and practices well and will have been through a period of reflecting on past achievements and self-assessment. They should feel more self-confident and be clear about what they want to do next and how to do it.
