Get the most from your life experience...

As you begin your college education, you have an opportunity to capitalize on what you have learned through personal experience.

College credit for prior learning can not only shorten the time it takes to complete your degree, but also save you thousands of dollars! Credit for Demonstrated Competency (CDC) is college-level credit which is gleaned from numerous learning sources after high school, including workshops, seminars, self-study, noncredit or unaccredited classes, training programs or work experience.

The following questions can help to determine if your prior learning knowledge will benefit you as you pursue your college degree at MACU.

Consider whether you have any of the following:

1. What work training have you completed at your current or past job? (Examples would include continuing education training, certificates, seminars or workshops)

2. Do you have any vocational training (technical or trade schools)?

3. Are you licensed? (Examples include cosmetology, real estate, insurance, contractor, pilot, notary public)

4. Do you have ministry training? This can be professional or lay ministry. (Examples include lay ministry mission trips, children or youth ministry teacher, Bible teacher or music ministry, professional ministry ordination and licensure)

5. Are you a volunteer in your community? (Examples are coaching sports, participating in community organizations, fund raising, political campaigns)

6. What are your hobbies? (Examples include travel, music, writing, art, gardening, photography)

7. Do you have any additional on-the-job training or life experience that you would like to include for consideration?

Please upload any additional documents that you would like to include for consideration (Examples include copies of letters, certificates, licenses, reports, videos, resumes).
