Abstract

Students attending Camden County College may earn college credit for a variety of learning experiences that were achieved outside of the traditional college setting, including advanced high school courses, military experience, work experience, non-credit certifications, foreign language skills, etc. A portfolio which typically consists of a resume, written narrative and documentation of the above mentioned activities enables students to identify and articulate this knowledge, and potentially earn credit for it. Students who wish to achieve credit this way should determine the credits needed to finish their degree at Camden County College and how their prior learning experiences may satisfy some of the courses they are required to take.
