@ss20ts, I guess this is from Sophia.org to UMPI?  I haven't checked the database...
@Mom5, I would suggest taking everything you can from Sophia.org and then move to Study.com for those you can't take at Sophia

I would take the course that is easiest for you, depending on which provider you would like to use...

Yes these 2 classes are from Sophia and how they transfer to UMPI including where in the GEC they work.

Yeah...I knocked out every need to do the BLS in 30 credits at UMPI, but I have a couple weeks and figure if I can know out a few more courses I might be able to squeeze the BABA out of the 1-2 UMPI sessions I have budgeted for.

Thus, Communication at Work in SOPHIA could fill PCJ 215 Business Communication in UMPI? Thank you.

The transfer database states this course comes in as BUS210 not PCJ215. UMPI reevaluates transfer credit often so what worked for some last semester may not work this semester. I don't know if BUS210 and PCJ215 are used interchangeably. Technically, they're not the same course.

What does GLO1:LOC mean?

What does GLO1:LOC mean?

General Education Curriculum (GEC)
General Education Learning Outcomes (GLO’s 1-5)
Learning Objective (LOC A-E)

From your example, it means the course matches the requirements for Gen Ed Learning Outcome 1. Learning Objective C.

Speaking of, it looks like the requirements may have changed again?  On the UMPI Website for BABA PM&IT, the "PCJ 215" seems to have changed to "COM 210: Organizational Communication".  I'm not seeing anything in the Transfer Equivalency DB for "COM 210". I did find this obscure page on the UMPI Website that mentions "Both Organizational Communication (BUS/COM 210) and Business Communication (PCJ 215) courses have been mapped to..." Given they list "BUS/COM 210" together perhaps they consider them equivalent?  Hmm.

Yes, the course changed beginning Fall 1 I believe. I wonder if they changed both courses to be the same course and renamed/renumbered it to help avoid confusion.
