What is the Marketplace?
Franklin University launched the FranklinWorks Marketplace in 2021. The Marketplace is an educational platform allowing learners to mix and match as many opportunities as they wish. The portal primarily contains non-traditional learning options that promote stackable, skill based, workplace ready offerings. Learners can browse a variety of offerings from trusted partners such as Coursera, MedCerts, and uCertify. All learning options are available to individuals and partners, and many non-credit offerings can lead to college credit.
The Prior Learning Assessment Tool
The Prior Learning Assessment Tool runs as a thread through the FranklinWorks Marketplace, allowing learners to answer the question, “When I complete this program, how will it fit into various degree programs at Franklin University, saving time and money?”
