Advanced Standing Partnerships

Upon successful completion of our schools, graduates can take advantage of our Advanced Standing Partnerships in which units of credit are awarded for your education with GoStrategic toward degrees and certifications with other colleges, universities, and institutions of higher education. CLICK HERE for details on our current partnership agreements. For schools with which we do not currently have an agreement, we encourage you to inquire about a Prior Learning Assessment (PLA)—an evaluation that awards units of credit for prior educational study, ministerial resumes, and work experience. Our alumni have consistently been awarded units of advanced standing through this process.

GoLife, GoBusiness, and GoCitizen graduates can obtain an official school transcript from GoStrategic as proof of their graduation status. CLICK HERE to request transcript.
