TESC approved FEMA's - brooklynquinones - 10-02-2008

Can anyone provide me with a master list of FEMA courses that are granted credit RAW through TESC. Not intended towards a degree though, I am more concerned as of now on just getting a certain amount of credits at this moment. I understand they approve 25 towards certain degrees, but I am wondering will they grant credit for more than 25 if you just want to add credits to a credit bank and be sent a transcript? Thanks in advance.

I think there was a list on TESC's website, but I don't know how to find it anymore. I just did all the FEMA's and got 30 credits.

If you can't find the list, I'd say just do all of them.

TESC approved FEMA's - Mamasaphire - 10-03-2008

So, theoretically a T or A FEMA credit could be used for core class credit at TESC??
