Experience-Based Education
Credentialing
Credentialing is the process of awarding academic credit for courses,
trainings, workshops, and/or examinations taken outside accredited college
programs. Successful completion of this learning results in a credential, which
may be in the form of a certificate, transcript, or license.
Course credit is determined by faculty review, or based on nationally
recognized credit recommendations from the American Council on Education.
Examples of the types of courses or trainings that might receive credit include:
EMT Basic, A+, Net +, MSCE certification, business-related seminars and
workshops, certain types of military training, and Massachusetts Firefighting
Academy certifications.
