The graduate has reliably demonstrated the ability to:
Earn college credits for what you already know.
Prior Learning Assessment is a method of assessing and recognizing learning that is equal to
college level learning, but has been gained outside a traditional classroom (through work
experience, volunteering, outside study, etc.). If you can prove that the knowledge you have gained
meets the outcomes of a Seneca course, then credit will be awarded.
How does the PLA process work?
Prior Learning is demonstrated through a "challenge" process. The process measures learning
through a variety of methods which may include tests, portfolio assessment, interviews,
demonstrations, essays, and work samples. The method used will be determined in consultation with a
Program Coordinator.
For more information and to determine if you are eligible for PLA, please call the Program
Coordinator.
The process may take from 6 to 8 weeks.
Note: Not all courses can be challenged. For more information go to PLA website or contact your Program Coordinator.

After planning events for the past two years, I felt I was missing structure in terms of organizing events and dealing with the problems that occurred. I decided to enroll in the Advanced Project Management program as a part-time student at Seneca College to advance my career. The Advanced Project Management program taught me the concepts and skills to help me in my career, including staying organized, having a better understanding of how to troubleshoot, and staying on track with the help of software programs such as MS Project. Currently, I am the Project Manager of African Fashion Week Toronto, a founding member of SisterTalk Group (a women's leadership network), and an ambassador of African Inspired Fashion Globally. Seneca Part-time Studies was the ideal choice for me because it was flexible with my full-time work schedule and provided great customer service while I was searching for what school to attend. I received all the answers and more, which made my decision to choose Seneca very easy.
