Penn Foster Classes and TESC Course Equivalencies Lists - KayV - 06-23-2013
Not long ago I made a list of different Penn Foster classes that are ACE approved and found their corresponding TESC equivalents. I thought it might be useful for the folks here. It's pretty long, so I'm going to publish it in different posts. As always, check with your advisor and make sure the course is currently approved before you enroll.
As seen in another post, here are all of the business classes.

Thanks for sharing your list. I think Introduction to Programming is CMP-111. I do know that it's counted toward the programming requirement for the BSBA in CIS program. COS-101 Intro to Computing is not.

I think that is all I have. As always, edit away if you know about other classes or different transcriptions. And thanks, sanantone, for catching that!
