Study.com Biz Comm

I understand that TESU would accept Study.com's Business Communication class. It appears that it will transfer in as 1 credit. Does that mean I need to fulfill the other 2 units somewhere else? Do I have to take the 2 units in business elective, general ed elective or free elective?

Let me know, thank you!

That is a specific requirement in the Core/AOS, so you would have to make up the credits some other way. There is really no sense in taking this course from Study.com - a total waste of your money (and an expensive 1cr to boot). Any other Corp Comm/Managerial Comm course will take the spot, and move this to "Other Credits" as a duplicate course.

If you are looking to keep costs down, you can take it from Saylor for $25.

It's also available through SL or as a TECEP. As a bonus, it comes in as MAN-373 from Saylor and a TECEP, and COM-300 from SL, so you can take both courses and get credit for each one (MAN-373 and COM-300).

Thank you for your feedback. Looks like there are better options for fulfilling Biz Comm requirement. Appreciate the info!

Within the next week or so, our Business 113: Business Communication course will actually be recommended for 3 credits by ACE. We understand that 1- or 2-credit courses aren’t very useful, so we’re excited to be able to offer courses that will better help you earn the credits you need.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out to us with any questions. Thank you!

Will the COM-101 Public Speaking also be back to 3 credits?

Great question! Our Communications 101: Public Speaking course will move up to 2 credits (instead of 1), but we're hoping to have it recommended for 3 credits by the end of this year if not sooner.

Does anybody know if this will cover the communications requirement of Charter Oak?

Also, Study.com -- are we able to purchase 1 exam at a time or will it always be the $199 2 exam accelerator option?

They just opened up single exams this week for $70 as long as you are subscribed to the $199 accelerator option. You can now take the two as usual and then have time for others within your subscription time. So it's not quite a single exam but it is better that you can now take extra exams for a reduced price.

Thanks! I guess I have to wait until I have completed the 2 exams in this monthly round of my accelerator membership to be able to do so as I can't seem to locate the option
