Re: PLA questions

Hi Jerri,

 

Helena College has a similar process to MSU-Great Falls. We encounter this a lot in our Fire and Rescue program. The student has to submit a form with the certification information and it is signed off on by the Department Head. It goes pretty quickly now because we all know what the certificate is going to count for.

Hi Jerri,

 

We apply our PLA policy and that requires that the student completes a form so they understand how they are getting credit, etc...

 

They would provide the appropriate documentation and faculty would sign off. It might be an easy sign off since it's been done before but we would make sure the student understood the process etc. I don't see it becoming automatic, etc. 

 

If you have additional questions I am glad to chat over the phone.

Good evening all, we are wondering how you might be posting third party credentials; for example  (National Restaurant Association Education Foundation).  If a student receives a certificate through an association like this do you:

 

Use the decision by the faculty (portfolio review) for any student there after

Or do you have each student go through a portfolio review?

 

Thank you in advance for any information you may be able to provide.  Hope everyone is doing well!
