I'm very interested in taking the Foster Penn HVAC course. I was wondering what the chances are of Excelsior giving me credit for this course. It is my understanding Penn Foster college is regionally accredited
but that some courses are only nationally accredited :confused:. I might be able to pick up a few credits under Excelsior

Penn Foster is nationally accredited by DETC. Their HS program is regionally accredited. I do not believe that the HVAC course is approved for ACE Credit. Excelsior will accept nationally accredited courses as long as they are approved through ACE Credit. You can check here: ACE CREDIT | The National Guide to College Credit for Workforce Training

Yes, :ack: *starts singing along with Madonna* (Rescue Me).
I've been listening to Madonna songs all of a sudden since last week, and I've not listened to her songs for ages.
Working at home has its benefits and rewards... I think it's awesome, I get paid to stay home.
But there's the other side of it as well, the balance in life/work is hard to achieve.
My daily exercise is walking the kids to school, back for lunch, and walking to school again.
Then on the offset days, they go swimming and skating... etc...
And then there's the time I need to use for my classes for this degree, *sigh*
Yes, i'm practically online for 10-12 hours a day, I use my ipad just for the forums I am in... and instant messages
The laptops I am glued to is only for work and completing my classes :p
