This module discussed how some applicants will want course credit for life experiences. I have found this to be a complex issue.
At some level, there is value for having experienced real-world experiences. However, as an educator I must know "how is this knowledge measured?"
My school doesn't offer life long learning, primarily for this reason. I know some undergrad schools utilize CLEP, which seems like a good idea. However, it would be interesting to learn more about how other admissions reps deal with this issue.
