I am an automotive shop teacher in California and looking to get a quick AS degree as it would help move up to the college level, I know that some colleges accept ASE certifications as college credits. Does anyone know if TESU awards college credits for these certifications (I have 10 of them) and I also hold a clear teaching credential from classes I took with Orange County Department of Education. Any insight would be appreciated.

I’m willing to put in work, just overwhelmed on where to start.

Good update, you missed half the info asked for though... Hopefully you'll have more to add before someone jumps in with a road map.
