Credit for Prior Learning

Please review the eligibility criteria with your student before they begin the Credit for Prior Learning process.

All Credit for Prior Learning forms are now completed in DocuSign. Please follow the instructions below to help your student begin the process.

STEP 01

Select the appropriate link from the list below. The links are organized by division. If your department or a grant is covering the fee for the student, be sure to select the grant funded link.

STEP 02

On the URL landing page enter the student’s name and email address.  Then enter your information and your department chair. Your Dean and Registration and Records are already in the workflow.  *As of Spring 2025, Course Scheduling is no longer part of the process.

If your department or a grant is covering the fee, there will be a place for you to enter the contact information for the Grant Liaison. This person will submit the Journal Entry to the Business Office to process the fee payment. This person might be you, an administrative assistant or a grant coordinator.

STEP 03

After submitting everyone’s information, you will be directed to the CPL form. Enter the course information and credits.

STEP 04

The student will receive an email inviting them to complete their part of the form. From there each person in the workflow will receive a notification email and a request to sign their section.

STEP 05

Once the workflow reaches Registration and Records, their office will confirm the student's eligibility and calculate the cost. If the student is paying the fee, their office will contact the student with the total and instructions for payment. Once the payment is received, Registration and Records will continue the workflow. The credit is not applied to the student's record until the fee is paid. This includes grant and department funded CPL. If you have any questions about where a student is in the CPL process, you can email registration@clackamas.edu.
