The Bachelor’s Degree with Work Experience pathway at UniDAIM recognizes the knowledge and skills you have gained through your professional experience. Instead of following the traditional classroom route, eligible candidates demonstrate their competencies through a portfolio of work and verified evidence of achievement. Your experiential learning is assessed against the learning outcomes of a bachelor’s degree program. Where the required academic standards are met, a bachelor’s degree may be awarded under the Validation of Acquired Experience (VAE) framework following evaluation and recommendation by the VAE Assessment Committee, comprising scholars and industry practitioners.

- Assessment Report: You will receive a detailed Assessment Report outlining the committee’s findings.

However, if your portfolio does not fully meet the requirements, you may be advised to complete additional courses to reach the necessary credit threshold.
