TRU’s Open Learning registration system will undergo further maintenance from 4:30 to 7:30 a.m. on Thursday, Sept. 24 by vendor Modern Campus. The OL registration system will be unavailable for 15 to 30 minutes during this maintenance window. In the unlikely event that problems are encountered, the outages could be more extensive and occur at any time within the maintenance window. Other TRU systems will not be affected. Thank you for your patience and understanding during this work.

3. Prior Learning Assessment and Recognition

TRU recognizes that adults acquire skills and knowledge through their life experience, beyond the learning acquired through formal education. TRU offers methods to assess this non-formal or prior learning.

Prior learning assessment and recognition methods are available to students in programs offered through TRU and may include challenge examinations, portfolio-assisted assessment, workplace assessment and/or other types of assessment methods.

Refer to the full policy or email plar_ol@tru.ca for further information.
