DAVAR Academy (formerly Tor) Information Literacy Review - High_Order1 - 06-22-2017
Ok.
In another thread, a person got a partial response asking about this (among other) courses. The person said:
Quote:Response I received:
We have solved your issue
Hi ----,
All of the TESU equivalencies you have indicated for the specified Davar Academy courses are accurate. Please note that the NCCRS review for all four of these courses began November 1, 2016, therefore the courses must have been completed since then in order for TESU to award credit. Please also note that these equivalencies are subject to change if an additional review or update of the recommended equivalency is completed by NCCRS.
Please let me know if you have any additional questions or concerns.
Thanks,
Michael Sheridan
So, I contacted my ace in the hole.
Their first response was:
Quote:I spoke with someone who works in Michael’s office about the equivalency. The course will transfer as we thought as ENG-102 Information Literacy. This is not a course that TESU offers, so the course code had to be added to the database. ENG-106 is approved to apply to the Information Literacy requirement.
But then, they said
Quote:The evaluation is now in progress, so you should have an update soon.
Which confused me. TESU is still, as of today, reviewing the DAVAR course. So, I asked, well, does that mean if i have taken it during the period of time NCCRS says it was valid, and i bring it over today, it counts? And, lets' say I bring it in, and then TESU determines DAVAR's course is full of crap, and doesn't approve it?
The response was:
Quote:Yes, the Davar Academy Information Literacy can transfer as ENG-106 Information Literacy and will be able to complete the Information Literacy requirement in the degree.
So.
I am saying that I 95% believe that we are good to go with DAVAR ENG-106.
If anything else changes, I'll update this thread, past that I consider it pretty much closed.
