Turn YOUR Past Workforce Experience Into College Credit

Did you know that you may be eligible to earn college credit for workplace training, military experience, and other skills that you have acquired in your life? Each year 2,800 students earn college credit through our Prior Learning Assessment (PLA). This results in over 28,500 college credits being awarded, saving students $4.38 million in tuition costs!


Get Started Today and See What You Can Earn

The Colorado Community College System’s PLA questionnaire will help you discover what college credit you might receive based on your past experiences. All you have to do is build out a quick history of the classes, training, jobs, and other experiences you've had!

After you fill out your personal learning history, one of our college advisors will contact you to finalize the credits for which you may qualify. Those credits will then be applied to any one of our 13 colleges.
