  • Make sure we have a current email address and daytime phone number so you can be reached or receive a message.

Credit for Prior Learning 

Many of our workforce training courses lead to industry-based certifications (IBCs). If you later choose to continue your education in a related college program, you can earn college credit for your prior learning so you don’t have to retake the same course. 

How It Works 

Workforce Training and IBCs: Skills you earn in workforce courses that lead to certifications can be evaluated and converted into college credit if you pursue a similar degree, diploma, or certificate. 

Work Experience: Relevant work experience may also be eligible for college credit. 

Credit is reviewed by Nunez to ensure it aligns with college-level learning and program requirements. 

Note: Credit for prior learning can help shorten your path to a degree, diploma, or certificate, but it does not affect your GPA. 

Who Can Apply 

Must be enrolled in a program at Nunez 

Must be in good standing at the college 

Must request credit before the midpoint of the semester 

How to Request Credit 
  1. Talk with your program coordinator or staff to see if your workforce training, IBCs, or work experience qualify. 
  2. Submit documentation, such as: 
  • Certificate of completion from a workforce course 
  • Industry-based certifications
  • Resume or employment records 
  1. Nunez will review your request and award credit if it meets program requirements and aligns with a similar college program. 

Note: To satisfy residency requirements, students must earn 25% of the total credit hours required for a degree, diploma, or certificate through standard instruction at Nunez Community College. Prior learning assessment credit does not satisfy residency requirements.
