Learning Mobility: Empowering Educational Journeys Beyond Traditional Pathways ^NEW

This book is the first comprehensive exploration of learning mobility in U.S. higher education. It emerges from a dynamic collaboration among scholars, practitioners, and policy experts who are reimagining recognition, validation, and credentialing practices to better reflect the realities of today’s learners. With AACRAO’s longstanding commitment to innovation in academic records, credentials, and student success, we proudly offer this resource free to our members as a catalyst for institutional transformation.

As learners navigate increasingly complex, non-linear educational journeys that often span multiple institutions, life experiences, and learning environments, traditional models of credit recognition fall short. Learning Mobility offers a compelling alternative: one that centers learners, values their full range of knowledge and experience, and builds efficient pathways through higher education. We invite you to explore the insights and strategies presented in this volume and join us in creating a more effective, future-ready educational system.
