I think your best bet would be to contact SpanTran and see what they say. They may not give you an answer without paying, but I think they should at least tell you if they'll evaluate it or not.

Saylor exams are fun, however, two or three times I had problems with the extension. Or maybe my internet stopped for a second, and I was out of the exam.

For those wondering, yes - Saylor has a cheap Customer Service course that is worth 3 credits for $5 bucks!
And no, for the CertiProf, these are just Credly badges, they have no ACE credit and there are a few freebies.

That sounds loco! Just kidding.
If you are a bueno test taker and can find some low-hanging fruta, then Saylor can be ok.

I have to mention that even when my internet connection could be a third-world connection at times, I usually don´t have much trouble with ProctorU at UoPeople. But in a much smaller sample in Saylor, their extension has already given me more issues (that didn´t impact the final result) than ProctorU, or that secure browser that SDC uses.

I like your Spanish, it seems to be very good

I´m taking edX SNHUx BUS-225x Critical Business Skills that is part of the Financial Accounting and Analysis MicroBachelors.
This MicroBachelors has 2 courses:
- Financial Accounting Fundamentals
- Critical Business Skills
and at TESU, you get this credit:
ACC-210
BUS-210
I asked for the need scholarship, so I paid USD$ 49.80 for the course (90% discount).
I´m already in Module 4 of the 10 modules of Critical Business Skills.
I have to mention that this course is not all like the edX and Coursera courses that I took for free more than 7 years ago. Usually courses were lots of videos, and have a video - test - video - test structure, with some additional readings suggested. However, in this course, it seems just like Saylor.
One module could be something like this:
- short video of 3 minutes
- 2 readings (from lumenlearning or openstax, those free book resources that Saylor also uses)
- short quiz (ungraded)
- 3 readings
- short quiz
- 2 readings
- short quiz
- short video of 3 minutes
- 1 reading
- short quiz
100% of the grade of the course, it´s in the final exam, and you have to get over 70%, like in other providers.

If I have passed Saylor´s College Algebra, I wouldn´t need CSM Learn for:
TESU Business Core_Roadmap: Part J. Quantitative Skills
Is that correct? College Algebra would fill that spot?
RE: Goal: BA or BS in CS or IT - bjcheung77 - 04-12-2022
My friend... NO. NO. NO! That's 3 NO's! But if I am guessing correctly, you're all good to go as you should have College Algebra, Statistics, and Quantitative Skills filled in already. If not, because you're on the 2021-2022 catalog year, you need all three of them. From what you mentioned in your post above - you're taking the course! Critical Business Skills is the BUS 210 you're needing for Quantitative Skills. You can skip CSM Learn if you get credit for it!

Thanks for saving me some time and money, I got confused and almost registered when I saw that I didn´t have anything planned for that.

I have these courses from Portugal with a C or better, that could apply to the BSBA, I think that I could get the BSBA CIS + Operations Management, I was worried about Quality Management (Actually, I wrote to CSU Pueblo today, asking if foreigners could register as NonDegree at the Independent Study way), but I had the course here:
![[Image: Quality-Management.jpg]](https://i.ibb.co/Tqtjwxn/Quality-Management.jpg)
Since all the other courses for the BSBA in Operations Management could be obtained easily and cheap from other sources, I guess there´s no need to worry anymore.
Now, I would need to know if I just take Project Management at Saylor, or if it´s worthy to take the Project Managament Certificate - Google via Coursera.
