How to write and submit your journal topics
Your life experience credit depends on a short bio offering some details about yourself, the number of topics you write about, 以及它们的长度. We'll guide you through the process, step by step.
步骤1
写个人简历
Introduce yourself through a short 500+ word bio. You'll write this just once with your initial life experience application even if you write more than one journal for potential credit.
步骤2
选择你的主题
Journal topics are arranged by credit type. Outlines are already approved so you don’t need to create your own. Just select the subtopics that match your experience.
Topics include American Sign Language, interviewing, proposal writing and public speaking.
Topics include history of religion, 艺术鉴赏, contemporary Southwest cultures and many more.
主题包括销售, management and retail principles, as well as personal experiences including photography, 家谱, parenting a special-needs child and many more.
