I want to pursue an (online) MSc in Cybersecurity.

My current plan:

1) Qualifi "Level 7 Diploma in Cyber Security" - 120 Credits, e.g. offered through LSIB

2) After this of course I would need an (online) top-up MSc. Both thesis and non-thesis options would be fine with me.


Until now: I found the Open University in the UK that should accept the Level 7 Diploma. Any other ideas?

I sent my daughter's transcript to TESU and they applied everything wonky. I am in the process of fixing it. She should have just 3 classes left for her BA in Psych & AS in Bus - capstone, SOS, and 1 UL Psych ... she is currently wrapping up a Coopersmith and a SDC course that she took over the summer.

TESU implied that I had already used "my two credit evaluations" .... I can't find anything here or on their site about it and the email question went unanswered. Help! Is ther a fee to add in more classes? is it not allowed?


Thanks!

Heads up, guys. It looks like UMPI has made some signifigant changes to the degree requirements for the 2024-2025 Academic Year. I count 6 new required courses for the BBA degrees, along with an increase in the BBA core to 57 sem hours up from 36 sem hours, with a reduction in the concentration hours to 12 sem hours per concentration. This means that once the BBA core is completed, it may be even easier to get multiple BBA concentrations completed depending on the individual students goals. I also count 3 new courses in the BA Accounting degree plan, along with a elimination of BUS 469, so an increase of 6 sem hours for that degree.

Does anyone recall what topics are covered in MAT140. 

I am waiting for fall I to start. I’m a bit bored, so I might as well watch some Khan Academy videos to pre-study for this class. Should be a quick one, but the faster I plow through this, the better. 

Thank you.

Hello everyone, I have just found out that Health 302: Health Services Policy from study.com will no longer require a final proctored exam after 9/3/2024, only the assignments and the quizzes. It has ACE recommendation until 9/30/2024 for 3 UL credits in healthcare policy.

The great thing about Elon Musk is that he speaks the truth, unlike most people. The truth often pisses people off, as it can go against conventional societal beliefs.

If you listen to what Elon Musk said, he mentioned:

     1. You don't need college to learn things; everything is basically available for free.

True. You can learn everything online, buy cheap books, and educate yourself.

     2. You need evidence of exceptional ability in the absence of a college degree to land a high-paying job.

True. You need a portfolio or some sort of track record of exceptional ability, and you could get a job at a Fortune 500 company making six figures.

However, what he didn't say is that this path isn't for everyone. You can't wave a magic wand or BS your way to exceptional ability. This method takes time, dedication, and a high level of skill.

Most people would be better off going to college, earning a degree, creating a modest portfolio that shows a minimal level of competency, and then using job experience to work their way up to exceptional ability as they climb the corporate ladder.

So, it's not a one-size-fits-all proposition.

I do understand that a lot of the negative press about Elon Musk has nothing to do with him personally; it's more about Red Team vs. Blue Team.

Hello all, I was wondering if anyone had any idea how long it takes new Sophia classes to be evaluated by UMPI for transfer credit?

Sophia just added a new Criminology class that seems quite a bit more efficient than Criminology at UMPI. I'm considering dropping Criminology for this term and trying to fly through some elective history classes until the end of the term.

Just wanted to see if anyone had any idea. Thanks!!

Is there a simple way to see if a course on study.com is recommended by ACE or by NCCRS? I assumed it would be on the course information page, but don't see it there. Do you have to actually go to the Study.com page on NCCRS and ACE website to find out for each course?

Is there a list on this board somewhere of which of our commonly discussed schools accept NCCRS recommendations? e.g. TESU, COSC, Excelsior, UMPI, WGU, Pierpont, TAMUC (and maybe some of the less commonly discussed ones like university of the people, walden, Capella, etc.)

If not, let's start one! I'll use it to update the NCCRS page on the Wiki.

I see an old thread on here from like 20 years ago about how to create or edit your signature for posts but the instructions are not currently applicable as there is no option to edit a signature on the left panel after clicking "user CP". Can anyone provide assistance?
