Can you tell me more about diplomas?

The concept of program completion awards on the basis of life experience originated decades ago. It evolved from the philosophy of receiving course credits on the basis of actual life, work experience combined with demonstrated test results. Similar programs are offered by a variety of organizations located in the United States and abroad.

Life experience based programs suit individuals who possess basic to expert level exposure and experience in relevant fields, but lack educational documents to demonstrate this acquired knowledge. These programs often result in overcoming physical and mental barriers to achieving your personal goals. Through Life Experience degrees, individuals can now demonstrate their knowledge and receive recognition for their skills and talents.

Life Experience based programs have been accepted since their origination and many have received accreditation status from accrediting bodies/organizations.
