Kaplan Documenting Your Experiences for College Credit
#8
Photog Wrote:I came across this free, self paced, open course from Kaplan. It looks like basically a self paced PLA with quizzes for each module, but 3 ACE credits are available for the course.

https://openlearning.kaplan.com/kuopenlearning/LRC100/

In the lower-division baccalaureate/associate degree category, 3 semester hours in career assessment, career exploration, or career and life planning (12/13).
5/1/2013 - Present

Here is the bad news, it says that a fee can be paid to have the portfolio assessed, but it doesn't have information about the price. I am assuming that to get ACE credits the fee must be paid, I have emailed them to confirm.

I signed up for the course to check it out, and it looks well laid out, there is access to a PDF book called 'Cashing In' (may be useful for those doing PLA's)
I clicked through the payment at the end to see the price of evaluation, and it came up $1500 :O $1500 for a self paced open course :O

It does say however that there may be scholarships available, so it may still be useful for someone that is eligible Smile

Photag, any information you have on the other three courses available being ACE credit eligible would also be helpful Smile
Don't forget that gaining college credit by taking exams is one of the reason's we're here. That's mainly possible through the flashcards made available by the owner of this forum : InstantCert Plus of course your hard work in learning and reviewing
