Credit for Prior Learning Policy Implementation Toolkit
Credit for prior learning (CPL) is credit awarded for validated college-level skills and knowledge gained
outside of a college classroom—it’s a strategy to grant students credit for what they already know and
can do. Across the nation, individual institutions and systems of higher education are implementing
comprehensive CPL practices to help working adults reskill and achieve quality credentials that increase
their economic mobility.
