CLU recognizes experiential learning generally to be at least as valid as classroom instruction, and in some cases even superior. Classroom learning often begins with receiving information through lectures or reading, assimilating and organizing that information into principles, and then applying the principles to specific situations. In experiential learning, one begins by acting and observing, then understanding the effects of his action in a specific circumstance. From that a general principle is developed, which can then be applied to a new set of circumstances.

Therefore, Life Experience credits applied to undergraduate degrees may come from any and all life learning experiences.<\/p>\n
Graduate-level degrees<\/b> involve specialized training<\/i>, so any Life Experience credits applied to graduate degrees must be from actual training in the specialized area which relates to the degree title being awarded. This means actual training seminars and courses attended, and books read, not just the fact that you worked in the area.<\/i>

He then returned \u201cin the power of the Spirit\u201d to begin His public ministry.<\/p>\n
God took Moses to the backside of a wilderness for 40 years of preparation so he could be sufficiently trained to lead the Israelites out of Egypt (Ex. 2-4).<\/p>\n

His classroom was in the streets and the hills. The Twelve learned by watching Jesus minister and ministering along with Him. The Master Teacher chose this teaching methodology rather than sitting them down in a classroom to instruct them.

I came to realize many opportunities led to additional opportunities. The most interesting fact I uncovered was my gifting for administration, research and teaching. When I took the course Gifted to Succeed<\/a>, I was surprised to discover my strongest heart motivations were for the whole and truth. It seems I have been exercising giftings that go along with these my whole life. I shouldn\u2019t have been so surprised when I took your course.<\/p>\n I am enjoying all the courses and sharing them with those around me. My pastor has asked me to teach a seminar on Gifted to Succeed in April. Thank you for making available the wonderful information in the courses. My life is greatly enhanced and my relationship with the Lord is deeper than I thought possible.<\/p>\n All of us gain experiences as we walk through life, and very often we learn important lessons through these experiences.
