Save the Date: Don’t miss this chance to strengthen your CPL programs and better serve adult learners! Join us for an insightful pre-conference workshop focused on assessing experiential learning and translating it into college credit through Credit for Prior Learning (CPL). Discover how three institutions—the University of Louisville, University of Memphis, and Shasta College—are successfully recognizing college-level learning that happens outside the classroom. CPL programs are helping adult learners complete degrees they started, sometimes years ago, by awarding credit for relevant life and work experience. Perfect for educators and administrators looking to build or improve CPL initiatives, this workshop equips you with tools, insights, and research-based strategies to drive successful CPL programs at your institution!
