Rejected PLA at TESU?

[truthling]

Has anybody experienced having a PLA rejected from TESU?  Or does anybody know what happens in the event a PLA is rejected?  Do students have an opportunity to improve the PLA and request another evaluation/attempt at getting credit?  If a PLA is rejected, can students make a second attempt after spending a period of timing getting more learning experience to achieve competency in the subject?  If a PLA is rejected and you want to make another attempt/appeal the decision, will students have to pay the fee again?

I'd appreciate answers here and will also report back after I speak with the PLA office.

Great question!

The head of the PLA office is a member here. I suggest emailing him directly.

I have been told a couple of times if there is something major missing or askew, the reviewer will contact you and allow you to resolve it.

I don't know what happens for a fact when they splash you.

It's what motivated me to turn in large projects!

I was told that it's a one shot deal. Maybe it's different now.

PLA is recommended for hard to find courses at the UL, as long as you have years of experience and experimental learning documented, you should be fine. It's a lengthy process but rewarding as basically, you are describing how/what you have learned and comparing it to what's within the course syllabus.

I highly recommend it if you have a few years of experience in computer programming or something along those lines and can document your projects/work you've done, and explain how it relates to the training or course. There may be internal training or courses you have taken at work that will be relevant.
