Abstract	Supporting adult learners as they complete their postsecondary certificates and degrees is essential to meeting the state's educational attainment goals and the employment needs of students and Washington employers. Students come to college with skills and knowledge acquired through work, military, and other experiences. Awarding academic credit for prior learning is important to support this population of students. Academic Credit for Prior Learning (ACPL) is awarded when a student's prior learning is assessed and found to be the equivalent of specific college course outcomes, and when awarding credit is consistent with the policies of the institution. This report provides an update for 2019 ACPL. For the third consecutive year, all 34 community and technical colleges, six public baccalaureate institutions, and ten Independent Colleges of Washington member institutions submitted data for the 2019 report. Of these 49 institutions, 42 had reported data in 2016, and 49 in 2017 and 2018, allowing a four-year look at change over time in total number of ACPL credits awarded.
