REVIEW:
"Tony Wall has been in the vanguard of promoting and developing innovative and practical approaches to the formal acknowledgement of prior learning by universities and others for many years. This latest contribution to the field moves the debate - not least about how to extend and broaden access to successful tertiary educational experiences - on yet again."
