I am not worried about my school caring about the source of the ACE credit...Like I said I really wanted to keep this B&M degree more "traditional", traditional meaning not having courses from a 1,001 different sources.
But how about we keep this thread on topic, about international business credits not ACE transcripts.

I'm confused as to how picking a non-PF source would somehow result in less sources...

:coolgleam: so, ironheadjack, did you email the institution to see if the TESU TECEP for Business in Society making the cut for the International Business requirements? If TESU accepts one or the other, I highly think other schools will do the same.

Management in the Global Economy ECN405EX (3 credits)
International and Multi-Cultural Marketing MKG400EX (3 credits)
Entrepreneurship in the Global Age ORG305EX (3 credits)
or possibly even:
Communication in the Global Information Age COM305EX (3 credits)
Intercultural Communication COM315EX (3 credits)
These were the CBEs I was referring to. It should be a last resort if the TECEP doesn't work. Hopefully it does.

I was wondering if we knew of a way to get a 3cr. course in International Business on an ACE transcript other than Penn Foster...?
Even though ACE accepts PF credits, and my school is pretty good with ACE, I worry about its (PF) reputation amongst B&M schools.
I believe BYU Independent Study has an International Business course.
I think you are correct in worrying about PF courses. They used to be on TV a lot back in the day for their high school, and career correspondence courses. If you are looking to eventually transfer into a good mba program, the adcom will be looking at the rigor of your course work.

Don't waste time by trying to save time. The only sure way to complete your degree is to knock out credits quickly and efficiently.
Don't let easiness bite you in the rear. Know your endgame (where you want to be) and plan backward from there. Your education is a means to an end.
Be honest professionally, socially and academically. There are people (especially little ones) who look up to you and they're going by your example.
Be proud. Whether you're an Engineer or Fast Food worker, there is honor and dignity in hard work.
Picking on people weaker than you only proves that you are a weak person.

Thanks PR, that is exactly what I was looking for.
Also glad you understand my point about PF. Just because it is a quick easy way to get credit now, doesn't mean it is best for your future career/education goals.
