What is the Academic Credit Bank System?
“The Academic Credit Bank System (ACBS) is an open educational system that recognizes diverse learning experiences gained not only in school but also out of school. When a learner accumulates the necessary ACBS-approved credits, he/she can be awarded a degree” (About ACBS page on the website).
Background
“Previously, non-formal modes of higher education were not given official recognition or credit because higher education was understood to be the sole domain of the formal school system. Such a belief placed inordinate demands on the university system and created excessive competition among students. Moreover, the value and power of non-formal education was greatly underestimated” (About ACBS page on the website). “In May of 1995, The Presidential Commission on Education Reform (PCER) presented an innovative vision of a new education system that promotes the development of an open and lifelong learning society. The introduction of the Academic Credit Bank System was proposed by the PCER as a tangible means of realizing this vision” (About ACBS page on the website). “On he basis of this proposal,the Academic Credit Bank System gained government endor sement through alegalactratified by the Acton Recognition of Credits.et con January13,1997.Between May and December of 1997, the accreditation system and the standard izedcurriculumweredeveloped, and the first proposal for accreditation of education alinstitutesand curricul awereevaluated.
