@ EC they were placed in the electives category.

At TESC, they're considered the following:
Q118 - FIS-391
Q137 - FIS 241
Q318 - HRM-331
I think they all count as free electives, except the HRM course if you're a business major.

How time-intensive and difficult are these NFA courses? It says on their site that one is allowed to only take each exam 3 times.

The math one I needed to take notes. The other ones were too long ago but I do not remember any issues.

Does anyone know how to get these transcribed by ACE? I'm looking in the Ace Database and can't seem to find the courses to add them to my transcript. (Well, add the Fire Supervision Course....which I took cold, wow!)
Edit: Nevermind, found it! It was under Fire Service Supervision: Self Study National Emergency Training Center (NFA)

Is there any benefit to taking these when persuing a BSBA at TESU?

Only if you have free electives to fill. And since BSBAs have little room for free electives, youre less likely to need them.
