For more than 60 years, the American Council on Education (ACE) has been a nationally recognized leader in the evaluation of workforce and military training, providing standards, practices, and tools that higher education institutions can rely on. Many nontraditional students can demonstrate college-level knowledge and competencies. Such learning—gained from experiences outside postsecondary education—often merits academic credit. Credit for prior learning (CPL) provides a range of options, from recognition of military and workforce training to national examinations and portfolio development. With more options comes the increased ability for greater numbers of learners to complete credentials.
