Summary: A Must Text for Managers of Prior Learning Assessment
Review: The Whitaker text is the definitive guide for those seeking to establish an effective prior learning assessment program for their university, college and/or corporation. Urban identifies and exhaustively reviews his "10 standards for Quality Assurance in Assessing Learning for Credit". These standards have been championed by The Council for Adult and Experiential Learning (CAEL) as their "10 Commandments" for PLA. The Whitaker text is a must read for anyone interested in how to correctly describe, market, organize and administer an effective PLA program.
