APEL for Credit Award [APEL(C)] is the award of credits for prior experiential learning towards a course in an accredited programme of a higher education provider (HEP).
Prior experiential learning is learning based on experience. It includes all learning which you have done up to this point which has not already been formally assessed. These can be:
life and work experiences (paid and voluntary)
prior learning gained through community-based learning
workplace learning and training
continuing professional development
independent learning
Join us at MMU now and get your prior experiential learning recognised for credit transfer through APEL (C)! The APEL (C) assessment will determine the extent to which you have achieved the desired course learning outcomes for award of credits within a programme of study. Credit transfer up to 30% of total graduating credits of a programme of study!
APEL (C):
recognizes non formal and informal learning
reduces repetitive learning
reduces cost of study
reduces the time to complete a study programmes
encourages admission of adult learners to higher education programmes
allows up to 30% credit transfer from total graduating credits

APEL (C) Application Process
Criteria for Award of Credits
Students must demonstrate an achievement of at least 50% of each Course Learning Outcome to satisfy the requirement of credit awards
The credit awarded is granted on the basis of the knowledge and skills acquired through informal and non-formal learning and not solely on the basis of claiming the experience itself. It is the learning and not the experience of the students which is being evaluated.
The credits awarded through APEL(C) can be transferred automatically to another programme within MMU if the course for which credits have been awarded through APEL(C) has the same learning outcomes.
The credits awarded must be equivalent to the credit value of the course applied for APEL(C). Award of partial credits will not be allowed.
Credits awarded for a course are only applicable to the specific course applied.
Credits are not automatically applicable to prerequisites (if any) of the specific course.
APEL (C) at MMU has enabled me to fast track my studies by trading my work experience through a challenge test. I have managed to save time as well as money since I was able to credit transfer and take less subjects.

I never thought that the long years of experience that I have had holding managerial and leadership positions in numerous companies have allowed me to gain credit through APEL (C) at MMU. The life and work experience that I have gathered is recognised, assessed with the same rigour as any other learning would be at higher institution level, and awarded credit. I can now graduate sooner than I expected.
