Prior Learning Assessment (PLA)

PLA is a term used to describe assessment of learning gained outside a traditional academic environment.

Put another way, it’s learning and knowledge that students acquire while living their lives: working, participating in employer training programs, serving in the military, studying independently, volunteering or doing community service, and/or studying open source courseware.
