Credit Options
OAR 581-022-2025

Students can obtain credit for learning that takes place outside the classroom through documented proficiency or mastery of identified standards. Standards include state academic content standards and essential skills/career-related learning standards, industry-based or other national or international standards.

The method for accruing credit must be described in a student’s personal education plan. Districts decide whether to award credit for prior learning.
