Welcome to the Office of Learning in Public
College Unbound is an advocate for learning wherever it happens. Students earn credit via Learning In Public (LIP) portfolios for robust prior learning. In addition, students learn how to frame and document their lived experiences to earn credit and satisfy the “Big 10” graduation requirements. These credit-bearing habits and practices help students become more effective leaders.
The Office of Learning in Public (LIP) is responsible for the following:
Ten individual portfolio credits you will earn at College Unbound are for demonstrating the skills and capacities needed to lead change: Accountability, Advocacy & Agency, Collaboration, Communication, Creativity, Critical Thinking, Equity & Justice, Lifelong Learning, Problem Solving, Resilience and Well Being.
