TESC Occupational Health and Safety

What courses satisfy "Occupational Health and Safety"
can the following from military work?
* Physical Education Wellness
* Personal Health
* First Aid

Best guess, probably not, but I would need some more specifics to give a better answer. What degree plan do you need an H&S course for?

APS-400 is a required course for a few of the BSAST programs. (Source: College Catalog 2014-2015) You will need to take the course through TESC if unavailable elsewhere.

As an example, the following require both APS400 and APS402 Applied Quality Mgmt
BSAST in Electronic Systems Engineering Technology
BSAST in Energy Systems Technology Degree
BSAST in Military Technology Leadership

• Possess an appropriate mastery of the knowledge, techniques, skills, modern tools and advanced technology of the discipline
• Demonstrate the ability to design, analyze and effectively use systems, components and methods with a framework of quality and continuous improvement
• Demonstrate knowledge of the applicable standards for occupational health and safety, the environment and regulatory procedure
• Communicate effectively in the technical discipline

I'm going for the BSAST Electronics Engineering. So I have to take 4 courses through TESC? to include the capstone and career course?

I don't know, you would have to refer to the degree plan and college catalog pg42, there seems to be many required courses for that degree. The senior year the required courses are -
Occupational Health and Safety (APS-400)
Applied Quality Management (APS-402)
Project Management (MAN-435)
Electronics Assessment/Career Planning (ELT-490)
Electronic Engineering Technology Capstone (ELT-495)

Project Management is definitely available at other schools. Not sure about the others. Speak to an Advisor for guidance/clarity.

I have those courses from military as well. I just ran a what if on that degree and they don't apply there. I know Penn Foster has some ACE approved Electronics courses, have you checked the ACE database to see if any of them will apply?

[timblackwell]

Yes I've checked the database, all my electronic courses form the Navy applied except for one 6 credit course tehy gave me 3 credits. I'm sure I can find another electronic course to fill that. I'm more concerned with knocking out the applied Quality management and Occupational Health Science course before I enroll. I realy want to only have the last 2 required courses.
anyone know of a good and quick Project Management course or credit option? in addition to the other 2?

Sophia Learning has a Project Mgmt course, as does SkillSoft if you still have access to that through the military. I want to say that one of the independent study programs like CSU Pueblo has one as well, but I can't remember. It might be worth your while to ask TESC if an OSHA 30 hr certificate would work to fill your OSHA requirement. You can get that one online for less than $200.
