Euclid schools will request a portfolio for assessment. We ask you to collect all material that proves your experience. Materials will vary depending on what your experience has been but will include any documents that demonstrate your knowledge and skills. Possible materials may include:
. resumes
. work samples
. awards you have received
. references of people who are familiar with your work
. multimedia (photographs, videos, etc.)
. certificates
. newspaper / magazine clippings
. job descriptions
Organize and present your portfolio in a concise, convincing manner.
Make sure that your message comes across in the way your work is organized. Providing a list of included documents and the respective skills and knowledge that they prove, as well as suggested course equivalency, will help our reviewers understand your experience and target credits to specific courses.
Applying for life experience credits and organizing a portfolio may take some time. But, when you compare it to the time you would have spent in class learning material that you've already mastered, you'll be glad you took a few extra hours to get credit for what you already know.
