Recognition of Prior Learning
Academic credit for working professionals, assessed and mapped course by course, so experience counts toward a degree.
Many working designers, editors and animators never finished a degree. Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) assesses what they already know and maps it to courses in a programme, so they study only what they’re missing.
PGA maintains an RPL course list for its bachelor’s programmes in computer arts, TV & film and fine arts, and runs portfolio-based assessment against course objectives.
