ABSTRACT: Coastline Community College has developed a
series
of guides to assist adults who wish to obtain college
credit
or advanced standing in evaluating and verifying their non
college learning experiences. This guide lists the
competency requirements of seven courses in the Personnel
Associate program: Employee Selection and Placement,
Special
Services and Fringe Benefits I and II, Wage and Salary
Administration, Personnel Management, Human Relations, and
Fair Employment Laws. The student is asked to measure the
knowledges and skills he/she has acquired on the job
against
specific behavioral objectives of each course. This
evaluative process is facilitated by sections of the guide
which ask whether the student is competent in each
particular knowledge or skill and which provide opportunity
for the student to record the basis of his/her competence
or
his/her ability to verify the competence. Verification is
possible through: (1) a personal interview, (2) a job
description of an applicable position that was held, (3)
standard examination, (4) examples of written evidence, (5)
completion of non-credit course or in-service training, (6)
an instructor interview with present supervisor, or (7)
other means specified by the student. The guide also refers
to the concurrent use of a portfolio prepared by the
student
to identify, describe, and evaluate past learning
experiences. (AYC)
