Prior Learning Assessment and Recognition (PLAR) or Work Integrated Learning (WIL) Assessment
PLAR or WIL Self-Assessment
The PLAR or WIL Self-Assessment provides the Applicant with a way to self-assess his/her knowledge, skills and abilities to the course learning outcomes. This will help the Applicant and the Coordinator to make a decision about pursuing PLAR or WIL Assessment.
PLAR or WIL Assessment will result in a grade, not an exemption.
Steps to complete a PLAR or WIL Self-Assessment
· Identify courses you feel you have learning in and review the learning outcomes.
· Copy and paste or write the learning outcomes of the course.
· Type/write the evidence that indicates how you have acquired the knowledge that meets each of the learning outcomes.
· Check your level of competence as you read through each of the learning outcomes for each course.
1. I am able to demonstrate the learning outcome well enough to teach it to someone else.
2. I can work independently to apply the learning outcome.
3. I need some assistance in using the outcome.
4. I am developing skills and knowledge for this area.
5. I have no experience with the outcome.
· Some things to consider when determining your level of competence are to ask yourself:
· How do I currently use this outcome?
· What previous training have I had in this outcome – workshops, courses, on-the-job?
· What personal development or volunteer experience do I have in this area?
In order to be successful in a PLAR or WIL assessment, your abilities must be at the 1 or 2 level for the majority of the learning outcomes.
Bring completed PLAR or WIL Self-Assessment to a consultation meeting with the Program Coordinator, Chair or designated PLAR or WIL contact in your program. The information you provide in the self-assessment will help you and your Coordinator in determining your eligibility.
