Alternative Credits/Credit by Examination
In an attempt to individualize the education of students, programs allowing credit-by-examination or experiential learning credits are recognized by Georgia Piedmont Technical College. Through these programs, students may be granted credit for subjects they have previously mastered in order to pursue more advanced courses. A maximum of 23 credit hours may be earned towards diplomas and/or degrees through this process. Recognized programs include CLEP, AP, International Baccalaureate Credit, Credit for Experiential Learning, Certified Professional Secretary (CPS) Exam, and selected student exams.
