At the University of Greenwich, we believe learning doesn’t stop at the classroom door. Many organisations deliver high-quality training and development programmes, and our Credit Rating service ensures that this learning is formally recognised. By awarding academic credit, we help learners turn professional development into real progress towards a degree.
What is Credit Rating? Credit rating is the process by which we assess external modules or training programmes to determine the level and volume of academic credit they deserve. This rigorous review guarantees that your learning outcomes are comparable to university standards, giving learners confidence that their achievements carry genuine academic value.
