UMUC Pilots Extended Transcripts
Traditional transcripts provide basic information about the courses students took: course names, dates of the course, credit earned, and grades. What traditional transcripts don’t provide is more in-depth information on the skills students learned and their competency in these skills. In Fall 2016, the University of Maryland University College (UMUC) piloted a digital “extended transcript” to better reflect student’s progress and competency of defined learning outcomes. UMUC is one of twelve institutions around the country to take part in a $1.27 million Lumina Foundation
