PLR Effective Date Exception Petition

The University allows students to petition for a PLR Effective Date Exception (EDE) and potentially receive the credit award when a student possesses a credential outside the effective dates of the Professional Learning Review (PLR).

This process requires the student to demonstrate that the credential awarded to them is comparable to the body of knowledge represented by the credential reviewed in the most current PLR.

In order to petition for a PLR EDE, please complete the form below, attach the relevant documents and submit your information for consideration. Please note: Any documentation received directly from the granting entity is considered “verified.” Any other documentation may need to be verified on a case-by-case basis.

A TESU representative may reach out once the EDE petition is received. A phone conference may take place between the petition reviewer and the student to clarify any questions that may arise during the review process. An appropriate subject matter expert may interview the student to determine comparability with the learning outcomes detailed in the most current PLR report, at the discretion of the School associated with the PLR.

This approach serves as a hybrid to the traditional portfolio assessment process and final approval of the EDE is determined by the School and the Dean.
