We recognize that college-level learning doesn’t always occur in the classroom. We understand that the skills and knowledge you have acquired may have come through learning in the office, in the military, or through various other life activities. Through transfer credit, testing, portfolios and credential reviews, you may have the opportunity to earn college credits more efficiently and at a reduced cost.
This session will help you:
- Define college-level learning.
- Reflect on your own areas of expertise and draw conclusions about whether your accomplishments of these areas constitute college level learning.
- Learn about potential pathways to earn academic credit.

The Parliamentary Committee is a standing committee of the General Assembly (GA) and is responsible for writing policies and procedures, reviewing and proposing amendments to constitutions and bylaws; and developing the verbiage and timelines for student initiatives and referendums.
UMA student government has a unique structure (with Student Associations at the Centers, Student Government Associations at the campuses, and representatives from each of these entities serving on the General Assembly). Because of their commitment to serving all UMA students to the best of their ability, the General Assembly has charged the Parliamentary Committee with assessing this structure and exploring what a possible restructure would look like.The Parliamentary Committee encourages all students to attend their meetings and/or provide ideas, suggestions and feedback regarding this via https://forms.gle/APjmSoKCuGPH8QPg6
