Update: TESU Dual Degree History/General Management

[vetvso]

Just a Quick Update on my own after-work studies: It's been slow going since I was activity management on nights for the last several years. I have been recently taking on a new overseas project and will be back in Asia in 2023. So I have four months to try and knock out most of this. Please remember that this is my second degree from TESU after my BALS in Social Sciences. I have financial support from my company, and the costs are close to zero for the time being. I'm trying to complete this program before the pressure mounts in 2023/2024 to begin a formal Master's Degree that my company will want me in. I took most of the history classes from other universities, and one from Sophia. I took the Principles of Management course from Sophia as well. My project management study is for validating my current knowledge, and for getting my PMP CERT from PMI. Once I'm close to the end of these PMI Prep Study Courses I may begin the ENEB Masters in Project Management. I welcome your questions and comments, and I learn new ideas from what I read here daily.

On a separate note, I am currently studying for NEG-401 Negotiations and Conflict Management TECEP using the Saylor course. The material is spread out onto other sites, and it's not very organized. However, I do like the material and find it useful within my own career. I was able to find "Fisher, R., & Ury, W. Getting to Yes: Negotiating Agreement Without Giving In (current edition). New York, NY: Penguin Books." on Audable.com and since I already have a subscription there was no extra cost.

Obviously you'll only need the 1 capstone course; Change Management is not available through Study.com or alt-credit, you must take it at TESU unless you can find a cheaper RA option out there; Non-western history is also not available through Study.com.

If I were you, I'd probably do the 16cr term and take Change Management and history at TESU:

Non-western history courses available:
HIS-261: Intro to Chinese History & Culture
HIS-301: African History & Culture (UL)
HIS-310: The Middle East (UL)

@vetvso, you may want to review the WIKI in regards to the courses and options required for the AOS, here's the Gen Ed link, it'll have the sub links to the History and other course options you may be looking for.  Link: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Sa...ts_Roadmap

I will most like to take 2-3 classes from TESU. I have many options for non-western history and may use the community college online. If I get funding at work for HIS-310: The Middle East then I will take it at TESU since I already the books.

Thank you, and the wiki it is very helpful. The use of Saylor and study.com is somewhat new to me. However, since my employer will pay for most of this I'm looking forward to getting more done. 

For my PMP study I use this often along with my other classes. https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...#pid378519

For me, the hardest part is always the balance of work, family, and school. Everything needs its time, and school is a forever journey of lifelong learning. I enjoy validating something I have learned from reading via, a test, ace course, or taking a college class.

I received word yesterday that my employer will be paying for a 5-day PMI/PMP BootCamp for me to get my PMP CERT. I'm considering taking the test in Dec if I finish all of my prep work by the time of the boot camp is finished.

Has anyone heard of TESU or others excepting class credit for the PMP CERT from PMI? I did see a statement from ASU that they do accept it for at least one class.

If the PMP was completed between 1/1/2008 and 5/31/2021, COSC recommends up to 9 credits: https://www.charteroak.edu/pla/credit-by...ng-exp.php

TESU might accept that recommendation since "the University may be able to accept credit recommendations or awards that result from another CACE institution’s review of a training program or professional credential without the requirement of a transcript from the reviewing institution".

If I remember correctly that is only for undergraduate work. I'm more interested in credit at the graduate level since that is where most programs discuss using their graduate degree program to get the PMP CERT. It does not make sense to take coursework over in my opinion but I know they want to make money.

Since you already have a bachelor's why not just go for the master's?
