CBLOs

CBLOs stands for Credit-Based Learning Opportunities. These are educational programs or courses that offer academic credit which can be transferred to another institution or applied towards a degree. CBLOs are designed to provide students with flexible pathways to earn credit outside of traditional on-campus coursework. This can include online courses, distance learning programs, internships, co-op experiences, and sometimes even credit for prior learning or work experience. The primary purpose of CBLOs is to offer accessible and adaptable learning opportunities that recognize and reward student achievement. Institutions offering CBLOs typically have established articulation agreements with other schools to ensure the smooth transferability of credits. This system aims to reduce the time and cost associated with obtaining a higher education by allowing students to leverage a wider range of learning experiences. The specific structure and recognition of CBLOs can vary significantly between educational institutions and governing bodies.
