As their names suggest, an academic LOR is used for vouching for the academic prowess of the candidate. It is mainly written by a subject teacher or a professor who can throw a light on your academic capabilities. While a professional LOR is used to highlight your professional skills. Immediate supervisors, managers, and employers usually write this letter to mention about candidate's performance and growth in a professional setting, showcasing his/her alignment in the intended program.
