Best options for someone with a bunch of art credits and no degree?

I always felt that in these type of circumstances, Arts degrees, PLAs would be the best method to earn credit. Most artists have a body of work, or professional portfolio, that could be used in documenting/assembling PLA submission(s). I've read on the forum TESU has a very inexpensive PLA fee for up to a certain number of credits. There is also another vendor Learning Counts. If interested, do a good search of the forum on the subject. I think someone with the right combination of knowledge and experience would benefit from using PLAs for course credit. Just something to think about while weighing options.
