Experience Alone Does Not Guarantee Learning Over the past few days, I have been mulling over a very simple concept: learning doesn’t automatically result from experience. But John Dewey (1933) said it better: "We do not learn from experience.

Why is #RPL called Recognition of Prior Learning, not Recognition of Prior Experience? That's because it’s the learning, not the mere fact of having had an experience, that truly counts. www.linkedin.com/pulse/experi... #PLAR

A digital graphic design poster with a yellow background and bold green text stating, "WE NEED YOUR INSIGHTS!" Below, smaller text invites people to help shape the future of Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) and Prior Learning Assessment and Recognition (PLAR) in Canada. The poster specifies that input is being gathered from RPL/PLAR workers and employers & leaders, encouraging them to complete a survey. The right side features an illustration of a hand checking a box on a digital survey form. At the bottom right, the logo of the Canadian Association for Prior Learning Assessment (CAPLA) is displayed.

Are you involved in skills assessment or skills recognition? Or do you oversee #RPL #PLAR activities? Participate in the surveys by Canadian Association for Prior Learning Assessment (CAPLA)!
