AP(E)L stands for:Accreditation of Prior (Experiential) Learning.

This Foundation Degree incorporates the opportunity to present a portfolio which represents accelerated learning through six modules worth of study (the equivalent of a year and half of conventional study time). The portfolio consists of undertaking short exercises or using APEL criteria to show that you have met the 'learning outcomes' associated with these six Level 1 modules. The entire course can thus be completed within two calendar years.

All of the materials to complete your portfolio have been compiled into a web site so that you can work through the exercises and build up the portfolio at your own pace.

After commencing the course in February, work can be started upon the APEL portfolio which needs to satisfy the School of Social Sciences APEL committee the following September, so you have several months for this task.
