Fjortoft, Nancy F.; Zgarrick, David P.
American Journal of Pharmaceutical Education, v65 n1 p44-52 Spr 2001
Surveyed nontraditional Pharm.D (NTPD) program directors to determine use of prior learning assessment (PLA). Eighty-four percent of respondents reported using PLA for one or more purposes, including the admissions process and awarding of advanced standing for didactic and experiential courses. Transcript review, faculty-developed exams, and portfolios are the most commonly used methods of PLA in NTPD programs. (Author/EV)
