They also worry about cost and favor making it easier for working adults to earn degrees, including the awarding of credit for prior learning.
Canadian Vocational Association / Association canadienne de la formation professionnelle's insight:

Americans overwhelmingly view a higher education as essential to landing a good job and achieving financial security, but they have doubts about its quality and affordability. They also favor changes in higher education that would make obtaining a degree more realistic for working adults. Respondents also support the awarding of credit for prior learning and skills acquired outside the classroom. some also said that they would be more likely to enroll in college if they could receive credit for what they already knew.

Australia. Articulation Pathway Models: A visual Guide A visual guide to pathway model options between VET and HE

Canadian Vocational Association / Association canadienne de la formation professionnelle's insight:

The visual guide is a resource for vocational education and training (VET), higher education (HE) and other stakeholders wishing to improve the seamlessness of articulation pathways for students.
It identifies a comprehensive range of credit transfer and articulation models in a graphic form, and is a starting point from which organisations can recognise their own work in this area with the potential to investigate other possibilities that may not have been considered or thought viable previously.
The resource is of specific interest to industry, academics, teachers and trainers, and student support officers.
