Like
other academic institutions
CU credit life experience and courses taken else
where when
appropriate. This can give mature students a "lift" and
make entry or re-entry into the academic world
substantially more attractive.
Your skills must be documented by some of the following:
------------
Courses
taken at other educational institutions
All courses without
exception will
earn you credits at CU. However, we cannot promise it will
earn you the full amount equivalent to a similar course
taken at CU, but we will do our best to give you as much
credit as we can and perhaps recommend that you retake a
portion of a similar course offered at CU.
Documented
verifiable work-experience
For some certifications work-experience is directly
exchangeable depending on how extensive the experience is,
e.g. if you already have a bachelor degree but additionally
can document work-experience for 5 years we might be able
to convert your experience into a masters degree or offer
you a licentiateship all
depending on what type of experience and skills you have
acquired during the 5 years.
If we find it necessary, we might request that you do a
project or a dissertation that we will evaluate. Most
students do a project related to their current workplace,
but we can of course also help you, if you don't want to
involve your employer.
Re-examination
Re-examination is an option for students that didn't finish
their degree or failed earlier, but are confident that they
can participate in the ordinary exam and pass it.
Other
verification
Other verification might include video of practical
activities.
-------------
All-in-all, your degree might be within reach in a very
short time, as a result of merit transfer and
work-experience being assessed and the combined score given
as academic credits.
These guidelines are also valid for certification by our
vocational training center.
Please use our contact page if
you have any queries or if you feel any of the above
applies to you.
