I've been a part of the forum for a while, and I have been thinking about whether getting a Doctoral Degree and having to do a dissertation or just try to write what would in essence be a "dissertation" for a research journal without a school backing.

Which would you do?

With advice I got from this board, my teenager is going to pursue a Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Studies from TESU, as his fastest path to graduation. He only lacks 4 upper level classes to take before applying. I am trying to determine what study.com courses TESU would consider to meet the UL BALS needs. Do the criminal justice courses count? What about anything in the healthcare management courses? Otherwise, he will be taking the history, psychology, and sociology classes. He would really like to do one of the criminal justice upper levels if it counts, so I appreciate if anyone has any insight.

Hello, everyone. 
Need help with young cousin who just became a modern Columbus and landed in NJ. He wanted to be a nurse but WES made his degree equivalent to a US BS in Physics degree. 

He applied for TESU "Accelerated Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN)" and evaulation transcript stated that his first degree missing these equaliant course. 

I am hoping if you can help with site can help to get credit.

Has anyone used study.com for preperations for Operations Management TECEP?

The University of Maine at Presque Isle is advancing proposals to offer two 90-credit (90 semester hour) bachelor’s degrees, both in the YourPace CBE format: an Applied Bachelor of Liberal Studies (BLS) and a Bachelor of Arts in Applied Psychology.

The proposals were recently approved by University of Maine System Chancellor Dannel Malloy, and they come as numerous UMS institutions and others are developing 90-credit bachelor’s.

The proposed Applied BLS will consist of

• General Education Curriculum — 40 credits
  
• Minor — 18-24 credits
  
• Upper Level Electives — 24 credits
  
• General Electives — Remaining credits needed to total 90 credits
  

• General Education Curriculum — 40 credits
  
• Psychology Core Requirements — 15 credits
  
• Psychology General Concentration — 30 credits (students can choose within a list of psychology and related courses)
  
• General Electives — 5 credits (the remaining credits needed to total 90 credits)
  

Peach Academy

I recently came across Peach Academy. Has anyone here completed anything from them?  I am not holding my breath in hopes that this will be the greatest thing since sliced bread, but I do wonder if any of the courses might be at least a little bit interesting. Without having taken a course, it looks on the surface that it might be similar to Alison.

I just checked the ACE accreditation deadline for multiple Coursera certificates and am pleased to let all of you know that all of the ones that had an expiration date of 06/30/2025 (today) have been renewed, with expiration dates in 2027-2028.

Walden University’s subscription-priced competency-based education program Tempo Learning, which previously only offered programs at the bachelor’s and master’s level, just listed on their landing page two programs at a new level, and it’s a leapfrog two levels higher.

The programs are the Post-Doctoral Bridge to Management Certificate (20 quarter hours) and the Post-Doctoral Bridge to Business Administration Certificate (25 quarter hours). The certificates are “designed for professionals who already hold a doctoral degree and need to take additional doctoral courses.”

The Bridge to Management offers specializations in

• 21st Century Finance
  
• Human Resource Management
  
• Information Systems Management
  
• Leadership and Organizational Strategy
  
• Organizational Design and Innovation
  

• Entrepreneurship
  
• Healthcare Management
  
• Human Resource Management
  
• Leadership
  

Hello all, I am somewhat new here, can’t find my old user name so I made a new one. I plan on enrolling into TESU as I did before. I knocked out about 15 SH there before life took over and I had to stop. I’m currently waiting for them to eval my JST and a few other things (CSMLearn, an ethics class I took, hopefully they accept it, and a few Sophia courses.) I’m looking at trying to use Study.com for most of my credits. Thinking an associates in business (no capstone) then perhaps a BALS with a concentration in business or computer. I am the type or personality who has to see tangible progress which is why I’m opting associates first. Plus it could help me get promoted at work. Have to have it turned in by Sept. (so it’s a slight possibility) hence the reason for study.com and also looking at coursea from Google. Just looking for guidance, once I get my eval I can be more open to what I have. Maybe talked off the deepens of a bad decision?

If I start with the $95 dollar one, will I be able to upgrade later to the other plan? (I’m willing to bet it’s a yes but better to know first)
