  • Credit is granted per course – partial credit will not be granted.
  • Credit granted will not exceed that of the RRC Polytech course credit.
  • The curriculum of the original course must be a minimum of an 80% match to RRC Polytech course outcomes.
  • Review Policy A14 (Recognition of Prior Learning Including Transfer of Credit)
