Credit for Prior Learning
The LCC Faculty Council's Credit for Prior Learning (CPL) Policy is up for review according to its five-year review cycle.

We envision the work to include remote work by email and limited hybrid (Zoom/in-person) meetings through 2026.
If you have experience and expertise with CPL, or are simply interested in learning and contributing a student's perspective to the work, please send a brief statement of interest to the Faculty Council Co-Chairs, at faculty-council@lanecc.edu by 12PM Friday, January 16.
