SECTION 3 - EVALUATION OF TRAINING COURSES AND OCCUPATIONAL<br />

EXPERIENCES FOR ACADEMIC CREDITS<br />

3.1. Introduction<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

The Center for Adult Learning and Education Credentials<br />

(CALEC) of the ACE evaluates formal training courses that<br />

are 45 academic hours or longer and makes credit<br />

recommendations to civilian post secondary schools,<br />

colleges and universities in five possible areas:<br />

Vocational-Technical Certificate, Lower-Division<br />

Baccalaureate/Associate Degree, Upper-Division<br />

Baccalaureate Degree, and Graduate Degree.<br />

The ACE academic credit recommendations are published<br />

online in the Guide to the Evaluation of Educational<br />

Experiences in the Armed Services, commonly known as the<br />

ACE Guide. New courses and occupations are continually<br />

being evaluated by ACE, and these entries are added on a<br />

daily basis to the online version<br />

http://militaryguides.acenet.edu. The credit<br />

recommendations of the ACE are widely accepted by civilian<br />

Vocational-Technical (VO-Tech) schools, colleges, and<br />

universities in the granting of academic credit and VO-TECH<br />

qualification to personnel who have successfully completed<br />

evaluated training courses.<br />

Civilian educational institutions affiliated with the<br />

Service Members Opportunity College-Navy (SOCNAV) will<br />

accept the credit recommendations of ACE, if appropriate to<br />

the student's degree. Academic credit recommendations to<br />

Navy training courses are based on ACE evaluations of<br />

relevant course materials and on-site visits to the LS/DET<br />

or training activities, particularly for new or<br />

significantly revised courses. Relevant course materials<br />

include Program of Instruction (POI), the TCCD, and the<br />

CMS/MCS. NETCINST 1560.1 (series) provides samples of<br />

these course materials.<br />

3.2. Policy and Procedures<br />

<br />

NETC is responsible for ensuring the continuing evaluation<br />

of Navy training courses (Appendix I) and Navy ratings, and<br />

conducting policy liaison with other Navy claimants and<br />

ACE. NETC (N5) will coordinate course and rating<br />

evaluations requested by LCs and responses to requests by<br />

ACE for course information. NETC will establish policy,<br />

procedures, and responsibilities for the continuous<br />

evaluation of Navy training courses, service occupations<br />
