Breakout 3 - Concurrent
Session Type

Concurrent - Includes content presentation and Q & A with audience

Session Description

The American Council on Education’s (ACE) Military Guide covers only formal military training for service connected academic credit. No standard guide assesses credit for veterans that is comparable to institutional award of credit for life experience criteria (civilian professional work). This session will explore assessing performance in military assignments for academic credit using a model similar to evaluating civil work experience, including some basic military terminology, correlating military experience to course outcomes, and a practical exercise.
