What exactly does the Commission want to know when it asks colleges whether the terms and conditions for recognizing prior learning are effective?
The college checks to ensure that objectives set for the prior learning recognition mechanisms implemented under its IPESA have been met. The college verifies whether these objectives are clear, adequate, and up-to-date. It indicates in its report whether it is planning to review them in light of its self-evaluation. The college describes its practices regarding recognition of prior scholastic and experiential learning. It presents the decision-making mechanisms it uses when it receives applications for recognizing prior learning. It demonstrates that these decisions are based on and supported by a clear process thoroughly understood by all parties. At the end of the operation and in its summary report, the Commission’s goal is to include a progress report on this matter to support, as the case may be, any recommendations it makes to the various stakeholders.
