Abstract

Funded through a Lumina Foundation grant, the Global Learning Qualifications Framework, as part of the State University of New York Center for the Recognition of Experiential and Academic Learning (SUNY REAL) initiative, provides a framework to evaluate learning regardless of where, when or how a student acquired it, as long as the learning can be documented and verified at the college/university level.
