Is college credit automatically earned when someone successfully completes a course listed in the National Guide to Educational Credit for Training Programs?
No. Successful completion of such a course results in actual course credit only when a postsecondary institution accepts the course toward a degree or certificate. Students who have already taken one of the courses listed in The National Guide to Educational Credit for Training Programs, or who plan to take one, should contact the admissions office or their faculty advisers to determine the acceptability of the course for credit. The extent to which the content of the course is relevant to a student’s academic program of study forms the basis for determining the number of credits that will be accepted. Note: These are credit recommendations. A college is not required to grant as much credit as recommended by the reviewers, nor is a college limited to granting only that amount of credit.
