Marketing concentration - Ideas - 05-30-2017

I plan to do a marketing concentration (plus CIS) at TESU. Would this plan work?

I did:
- Study.com Digital Marketing and Advertising which should be MAR-441
- Study.com Marketing Research is speculated to be MAR-411. I should have asked TESU before I took it.

I plan to do these to have enough UL Marketing credits:
- TECEP Marketing Communications (UL)
- TECEP Advertising (UL)

I plan to do these to have enough total Marketing credits:
- Saylor Intro to Marketing (LL?). Don't want to do Davar.
- TECEP Public Relations Thought & Practice (LL)

Do I need another Marketing course, because Intro to Marketing goes into the business core and not my AoS? I think so. So I guess I would also do TECEP Sales Management, but that is my least favorite of these TECEPs.

Is there anything I'm missing that would save me money or time? I know about the Davar sales course, but it seems to be expensive due to needing an online access code (to do the written assignment). I would do it if I could get access much cheaper. And Study.com Hospitality Marketing is too much work (if it even counts for AoS).

Edit: I want to avoid the expense of CSU-Global CBEs or Penn Foster if possible.

Have you taken any of your marketing courses yet?


RE: Marketing concentration - sanantone - 11-17-2017

Intro to Marketing is required in the business core, so it will not count toward the AOS.

Yes, all of the Marketing AOS courses. 

Not the Principles of Marketing yet! I will take that soon.

You left the basic one for last, nice :-)

Were any of them particularly more enjoyable or easier/harder than the rest? I am trying to find one to do just to fulfill my third type of gen man AOS class.

Smile But I have 3 finance AOS exams left!

I thought Marketing Research was easy. It does have an assignment. (I believe only one.)

Others say the Digital Marketing course is easy, but I felt one assignment was hard and graded harshly. You can still pass with one of the assignments having a low grade Smile It seems more time consuming to do 2 assignments if you have an option to do only 1 assignment.

Thanks bud. How were the TECEP's?


RE: Marketing concentration - Ideas - 11-17-2017

I took 3 TECEPs. I didn't take the Advertising TECEP.

I don't recommend the Sales Management TECEP at all. I complained about it in detail in my BSBA thread.

I don't remember a lot, but I think that Public Relations seemed difficult to score higher on. Probably easier than the others since it's LL.

I also did Principles of Sales at Davar which required at least one assignment.

Thanks for the info. Keep up the good work!
