Program Level PLAR User’s Guide

Evaluating Adult Learners Against Industry Standards or Entire Program Outcomes

This practical User's Guide is a product developed out of the collaborative presentations and discussions at the Canadian Association for Prior Learning Assessment (CAPLA) 2007 Fall Focus pre-conference workshop entitled "Evaluating Adult Learners Against Industry Standards or Entire Program Outcomes". It is designed to lead an organization step by step through a prior learning assessment and recognition (PLAR) process of an entire program and provide an understanding of some of the challenges that may be encountered.
