PLAR is the abbreviation for "Prior Learning Assessment and Recognition". It is therefore about the assessment and recognition of learning outcomes and skills acquired previously or outside the university.

• Are you enrolled at the Carl von Ossietzky University of Oldenburg?
• Have you completed professional training and/or do you have skills and competences from work, further education and training?
• Have you identified modules in your degree program for which you already have the required skills?

Then the PLAR-Service can advise you on your recognition options!

The PLAR-Service

• advises you on your recognition options and supports you with the application process,
• helps you to present your learning outcomes and competences in a portfolio in a comprehensible manner and thus make them visible for a recognition application,
• helps you to compile the documents required for the application and, if necessary, supports you in identifying evidence that proves the acquisition of recognize skills.
