How do I get started earning credit?
You and your mentor(s) fill out a Credit Planning Form-Planning Section for each credit or portion of credit to be earned. The
Credit Reporting Plan will include:
- The skills and concepts to be mastered, a list of resources to be used
- How you will demonstrate mastery
- Establish how you will evaluate the work
Clonlara uses the Carnegie Credit Hour system (180 hours = one credit, 90 hours=.5 credit, and 45 hours=.25 credit). When you
return the Credit Planning Form to Clonlara, the Temporary Program administrator will determine if your plan is acceptable. Once
your plan is approved you can begin work. You are required to save your work to submit for a mid-term progress report.
Upon completion of the work agreed upon, you will submit a completed credit report form, a portfolio of completed work,and an evaluation
completed by both you and your mentor. The administrator of the Temporary Enrollment Program will evaluate the work and determine what,
if any, additional assessment is needed to award the credit.
