I'm new here. Can someone explain the best way to get credits for my FEMA courses I've taken and what it costs?
Thanks

Here is a link to another thread discussing the FEMA credit process in more detail. http://www.instantcertonline.com/forums/...light=FEMA In addition, you can search the board for any references to a particular word or phrase (in this case "FEMA"). Just click on "Search" in the horizontal menu at the top of each page. If you still have questions after reading the above thread, let us know! Take care, Snazzlefrag

Does anyone know for sure how many fema courses tesc will give credit for? A friend of mine called them and he said they only told him they give credit for what the ACE recommends.

Only TESC can give you a definitive answer to that. But based on the experience of others, I can tell you that they accept at least thirty of the available FEMA credits. I'll see if I can find the post, on another board, where a guy listed which FEMA credits TESC had accepted. Standby.

I just got the same responce from Excelsior. While doing a google search I found a couple of colleges that "no longer accept FEMA credit in any form." Looks like the word is out that these may not be the most difficult. I went to ACENET and did a search for "FEMA." The courses that they recognize are, suprise, not the online ones but the advanced training courses. Some of them were 36 hours and still only worth one credit.

Okay,
I found the list. This list shows the credits that were accepted by TESC (in August 2005) out of the FEMA courses that this particular person had passed. NOTE: This list may be outdated now. So you should confirm with TESC. [TESC Course # - FEMA Course #] EDM 101 - IS001 EDM 102 - IS002 EDM 103 - IS007 EDM 107 - IS230 EDM 120 - IS120 EDM 121 - IS324 EDM 122 - IS288 EDM 123 - IS195 EDM 124 - IS275 EDM 126 - IS208 EDM 130 - IS279 EDM 140 - IS393 EDM 154 - IS005 EDM 155 - IS346 EDM 172 - IS301 EDM 190 - IS008 EDM 191 - IS010 EDM 192 - IS011 EDM 193 - IS111 EDM 200 - IS292 EDM 203 - IS139 EDM 207 - IS240 EDM 208 - IS241 EDM 209 - IS242 EDM 210 - IS244 EDM 221 - IS630 EDM 222 - IS600 EDM 223 - IS015 EDM 224 - IS235 EDM 225 - IS631 EDM 232 - IS386 EDM 240 - IS009 EDM 241 - IS394 EDM 242 - IS271 EDM 290 - IS632 EDM 303 - IS513 EDM 399 - IS003 Hope that helps, Snazzlefrag

That's why you have to have them accepted by a RA school first before EC will accept them.....
