Use Education Cloud objects to model definition, submission, and evaluation of transfer credit data.
Create a Transfer Credit Request
An applicant creates a course credit transfer application for requests and decisions at a course, degree, or experience level. The course credit transfer application includes potential transfer courses, approved learning equivalencies, and verified external learning participant results from a transcript.
The registrar manages the application. The course credit transfer application also opens a case for the registrar, initiating the administrative process at a college, experience, or transcript level.
A transfer credit request uses these objects.
- Case
Represents administrative requests and holds all the information submitted by applicants.
- Course Credit Transfer Application
A request to get academic credit for courses taken at another institution applied to your current degree.
Recognize Prior Learning
Learning represents information about a curriculum that you can make available to a contact as a course, program, or on-site experience. A registrar recognizes an external learning, which can be a course, exam, or experience to capture key details. This builds a knowledge base of potential transfer credits for future evaluation.
The prior learning uses these objects.
- Learning
Information that defines a curriculum that can be made available as a course, program, or on-site experience for a contact.
- External Learning
Defines a training that is made available by an external provider as a course, program, or on-site experience.
Define Equivalencies
A registrar creates an equivalency rule that maps an external course to a course at the connected campus. All applicants from that college automatically receive the correct credit.
An equivalency uses these objects.
- Learning Equivalency
The details of the equivalency between external and internal learnings.
- Learning Equivalency Achievement Mapping
The mapping between a learning equivalency, a source achievement group, and a target achievement group.
Verify Transcripts and Suggest Credits
The registrar evaluates the official transcript for course, experience, or exam information. They can then automatically map it to the course credit transfer application records.
