Summarized Sources of Credit
#1
I have begun to summarize what sources there are for credit, whether they are classes or tests, and what subjects/courses are offered. My first draft is available online as an excel spreadsheet using pivot tables:

Credit.xlsx

Check it out. If anyone has something they want to add, or become a collaborator, let me know. Or if you want a different report run on the data, I'll see what I can do.

I am hoping to add to the data significantly, let me know what is missing.


Hope it helps

I like the format! Thanks for posting! Do you want this shared or is it just for help here? Also, put a name on it so no one takes it lol.

Thanks! Yeah good idea. I put my name on it, no protection though, so people should still be able to download and edit. I'm cool with that, although I would prefer to know if that happens so as to improve my version, but I really don't care what people do with it. And this can be shared, I want it to be seen by anyone it can benefit!

What a helpful resource! I would add the credits available through TEEX and FEMA-- though FEMA credits only apply to COSC, I believe.
Great job!

This is great, but the only problem is that later, you're going to get the GIGO problem if no one updates it with catalog changes. But awesome 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.

I agree, it won't stay up to date forever, but it is helpful for a short while.

Also, I added TEEX based on the ACE recommendations on ACE's site. I have no clue what of these and where these are accepted as there are quite a few more than cybersecurity! But they are there for you guys to go through and weed out.

psrearick,

I would love to collaborate with you one this! I have created a website to list as much information on obtaining a college degree by mainly testing out to help newbies like myself. It was so overwhelming when I first got started, I thought it would be helpful to have all of this information in one place.

Check out my website and let me know if you would be interested in having me add this, I would definitely give you full credit for all of your hard work!
