Straighterline courses and credit for TESC - TxExec - 10-09-2014

I am looking to utilize a free course from straighterline for BS/BA, Mgmt at TESC. What would be the best course to knock at at Straighterline toward BA/BA, mgmt at TESC?

Business Ethics was a fairly easy one for me. and it fits the BS/BA.

Business ethics is open book too. Not to mention people on this forum tend to have a free ebook they can send you.

Great thank you! Business Ethics. I was concerned because straighter line said none of their classes are less than 75 hours per 3 credit hour class. I got the impression that their class systems would force you to go through 75 hours of classwork to get to the end; that was a big turn off. unless i am misunderstanding it, but 75 hours would be an excessive amount of time. any thoughts on this as far as straighter line goes?

There are no mandatory time limits. You can simply skip to the graded assignments if you have a good understanding of the material.

You just read and take tests that are open book (bus. ethics class), all at your own pace. It is completely up to you as to how much time you put into it.

Are straighterline credits at TESC Pass/Fail? Or do they count it as a % grade

At TESC, Straighterline courses are not listed with grades, you are simply awarded CR for the course (similiar to CLEP/DSST). The courses are listed and given CR on both TESCs transcript and academic evaluation (degree plan).

See the following post for a pic of how the courses are presented on an official transcript.
