Credit for Prior Experience & Education

UVU offers Credit for Prior Learning (CPL) to help students earn college credit for skills and knowledge they already have from work, training, or past education. This process recognizes prior learning and helps make college more affordable and accessible. Students complete an assessment to demonstrate their knowledge before credit is awarded. CPL saves time and money by matching real‑world experience to UVU college classes.
