PLA/Electives at Pierpont for BOG AAS
#5
Thanks for that I just went to check and luckily they do cover PLA or tests for credit. I'm trying to figure out if Sophia and the like would be covered too:

What Degrees or Education Programs Are Eligible?
All education programs must be related to the employee’s current job or an established career path within
Advocate Aurora Health. All coursework must result in academic credit.
Educational programs that are covered include:
 Undergraduate Degree Programs (Associate’s, Bachelor’s)
 Graduate Degree Programs (Master’s, Doctorate, PhD)
 Individual Courses
 Certificate Programs
 Certification Courses and Certification Exams
Prior Learning Assessments and Challenge Exams are covered if credits are achieved. When applying, please
select the intended provider, where your credits will be applied toward your degree

If Pierpoint or TESU or Charter Oak can't be used in such a way to get me PLA credit for the electronics coursework I'm doing outside of a proper degree its not worth it to me and I'd just stick with an associates from Purdue University Global because I've already go 30+ credits there and can use work experience for credit pretty easy.

I would much much much prefer a degree that say Electronics/Electrical/Computer Technology or something technical instead of a professional studies degree though. Employers judge your resume in less then a minute and those words would catch better.
My big issue with college has been it is not worth my time to work on coursework that doesn't make me better at my job immediately. If I need to learn something I can. I can't if I'm doing college courses, especially if it is traditional.
