Abstract	The discipline of education is a multi-faceted system that must constantly integrate new strategies and procedures to ensure successful learning experiences. Enhancements in education provide learners with greater opportunities for growth and advancement. "Open Learning and Formal Credentialing in Higher Education: Curriculum Models and Institutional Policies" is an authoritative reference source for the latest scholarly research on learner-focused approaches within adult education environments. Featuring expansive coverage on topics relating to open education, lifelong learning, and formal qualifications, this book is a crucial reference source for researchers, educators, policy makers, and educational administrators interested in the relationship between formal credentials and open education. This book features timely, research-based chapters across a variety of relevant topics including, but not limited to, educational resources, lifelong learning achievements, and the benefits of formal qualifications and licensing. After a foreword by Kathleen P. King and a preface by the editors, chapters in this book include: (1) Conceptualising Recognition of Prior Learning Processes in the Age of Open Learning (Elizabeth Ruinard and Judith McNamara); (2) Australian Universities' RPL Policies and Practices: What Knowledge Counts?
