LA CROSSE, Wis.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

The American Council on Education's College Credit Recommendation Service (ACE CREDIT) has evaluated and recommended college credit be awarded for all of Kaplan Schweser's Accelerated Financial Planning (AccFP) courses.

“These recommendations soundly affirm the quality of Kaplan Schweser's programs and materials,” said Kaplan Vice President Joyce Schnur, CFP®, MBA, ChFC. “There are many benefits for students, who can now seek to use these credit recommendations to continue their education in degree programs within Kaplan University or at other institutions.”

Each of the AccFP 101–106 courses received a credit recommendation of three semester hours of credit at the upper division undergraduate level; AccFP 107 received a credit recommendation of three semester hours of credit at the graduate level.

The American Council on Education, the major coordinating body for all the nation's higher education institutions, seeks to provide leadership and a unifying voice on key higher education issues and to influence public policy through advocacy, research and program initiatives.

ACE CREDIT connects workplace learning with colleges and universities by helping adults gain access to academic credit at colleges and universities for formal courses and examinations taken in the workplace or other settings outside of traditional higher education.
