About the Book

Credit is intertwined with higher education around the world and this book introduces and analyses the long-term effects that this connection brings. Structured in three parts, the book is grounded in experience, practitioner research and detailed policy analysis. The greater availability of credit in higher education is closely tied to policies of widening access and this book addresses current issues including the consequences of Brexit, standards in higher education and the management of mobile student learning.

The contributors to this book:

-Explore the development and integration of credit within institutional policy
-Outline the systems of student progression and achievement, including methods of assessment and measurement
-Examine the official account of credit, widening access and curriculum in the UK
-Analyse how credit can facilitate flexibility in curriculum design

The book is relevant to anyone engaged in educational development, academic policy and learner support. The breadth of contributions from across the UK ensures the variation in policies is mapped and charts the implications for learners.

"Rarely does a text come along which tackles challenging, technical aspects of higher education and presents them in an accessible and creative way. "

Maureen McLaughlin, Academic Registrar, Northumbria University, UK

"This is a scholarly and timely analysis of the development of systems for recognising academic credit within the context of widening access to higher education."

Dr Marie Stowell, Director of Quality and Educational Development, University of Worcester, UK

"This book is required reading for anyone interested in the future of higher education in a rapidly changing world."

Dr Andy W. Smith, Quality Assurance Agency for Higher Education

"It is hard to find enough words of praise for this excellent collection of essays."

Herman de Leeuw, Executive Director and Founder, Groningen Declaration Network

Wayne Turnbull was Head of Academic Policy and is now a historian at Liverpool John Moores University, UK.

Harvey Woolf was Head of Academic Standards at the University of Wolverhampton, UK. He is a founder member of the Student Assessment and Classification Working Group.
