GoldRibbon

Get Credit for What You Know

GoldRibbon helps learners turn experience into well-prepared course credit opportunities. Upload a resume, transcript, or LinkedIn profile and discover untaken courses you may be ready to support through stronger, well-justified learning assertions.

Step 1. Share your evidence

Upload your resume, transcript, and LinkedIn profile. Optionally add certifications, military learning, badges, licenses, or other evidence of prior learning.

Step 2. See your Selfie

GoldRibbon extracts a concise competency Selfie showing your major knowledge areas, skills, abilities, work functions, and demonstrated experiences — grouped clearly.

Step 3. Discover course opportunities

Based on courses you have not yet taken, GoldRibbon suggests up to five that may be strong candidates for portfolio development or Prior Learning Assessment preparation.

Step 4. Build your assertions

For each suggested course, prepare stronger assertions of learning with justification, evidence framing, mapped competencies, and supporting examples — so you arrive ready for institutional review.

Preparation, not evaluation GoldRibbon helps you organize and present your learning. It does not award credit. Formal review by the institution is the next step — and you arrive better prepared for it.

Same family, new purpose Built on the same KSAWorks platform as GoldCheck, Playlist, and Performer. Shared services, shared data, consistent experience — no duplicate infrastructure.

GoldRibbon — Get Credit for What You Know

Many learners have already developed college-level learning through work, training, service, and lived experience. The challenge is organizing it, naming it, and supporting it in a way an institution can review. GoldRibbon helps learners bring that experience into view, identify untaken courses that may fit, and prepare stronger assertions of learning for Credit for Prior Learning review.

The institution benefits because the learner arrives better prepared, more engaged, and more ready for advising, PLA review, and next steps.
