I would think that the TEEX ethics course would count for "ethics in technology".

SDC has American Politics and the US Constitution.

I did both TEEX Ethics and the Institute Ethics but it didn't transfer in.

You could test out on the Java Associate/Professiona certificates as that's pretty much what you are going to do. Code Academy and Udemy are good resources to learn that one. Web Dev - User Interface - User Experience can be done with CIW's certificates and they're not crazy hard. Code Academy is going to be a good resource here.

Thank you, I will look into that.

I would tread carefully with WGU courses as some of those courses listed, there aren't an affordable alternative provider. So, the only way to do those courses is through WGU. I would prepare for the courses, and from looking at that list, it may take over 1 term, you want to make sure you can complete it at least within two terms for financial reasons.


RE: BS SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT - akr680 - 06-23-2020

I think I can complete it in 2 semesters.

Well, there are resources to study for certification courses.  You could spend a couple of months studying ahead of time.

If you haven't seen it already, check out the Skillsoft/Percipio offer in the free section. I'm not sure about CIW but they definitely have CompTIA stuff.
