Portfolio of Learning Outcomes

Students may petition the college for credit by developing a portfolio that describes and documents relevant prior learning comparable to that gained in CCA courses. Faculty in the appropriate program area will evaluate the portfolio and award credit commensurate with the learning experience. No more than one portfolio evaluation for a particular course per student will be arranged during any one semester. Each course must be in the college curriculum and must be part of the student’s certificate or degree requirements. The cost for a portfolio evaluation is $65.00 per credit hour and payment must be made prior to the evaluation. Although credit for experience demonstrated by portfolio could count towards graduation from CCA, other colleges will have their own evaluation procedures for portfolio work and may not accept this credit in transfer.
