This was designed as an alternative to credit based solely on clock hours, instead focusing on mastery, and it opens up learning beyond each school's course catalog to anything the student is interested in and can learn.  Credit has to be transcripted just like every other course on the transcript--no "asterisk."

You could respond directly to Jonathan, but if you respond to the list, I’ll forward the messages on, and we’ll all know how you highlight achievements on transcripts!
