ARM Portfolio Development

Course number: PLAR 0011

Course length: 45 hrs

Course description:

The ARM (Adult Recognition Model) Portfolio Development course is primarily designed to support NWT adult learners, who want to receive an NWT Secondary School Diploma (Grade 12 diploma) through the NWT Prior Learning Assessment and Recognition (PLAR) Process. Adult learners taking ALBE 140 – 160 courses will use their portfolios to apply for PLAR credits that count towards their diplomas. Students will develop their own personal portfolio that will help them identify their strengths, increase their self-confidence, and set goals for their futures. The six main course units are Introduction to PLAR Portfolio; Graduation Plan; Personal Goals and Skills; Portfolio Matching and Documentation; and Portfolio Submission. Once a student completes his or her PLAR Portfolio, he or she submits it to the PLAR Evaluation Committee. It should be noted the NWT Senior Secondary School Diploma is awarded by the Department of Education, Culture and Employment to adult learners that meet the graduation requirements.
