Here's a slightly modified post of mine from a few months ago:
I asked the folks at Excelsior College if a counseling course at the College of the Canyons in Santa Clarita, CA would satisfy their Information Literacy requirement. Their reply was:
"I reviewed the courses from College of the Canyons and added them to the Course approval screen. As you will see COUNS 070 does not meet Information Literacy, it would be a developmental course and would not be acceptable for credit. LMTECH 100 Introduction to Research will meet the requirement."
Aha! I didn't expect them to delve into the schedule for me, but am very grateful. LMTECH 100 is a one unit online course (two on-site visits required--first day and last of one month course)which would cost $20 for CA residents. I haven't done it yet but I'm passing along the info so people can use it. If the CA course isn't your best option, you may try looking at the description of the Introduction to Research course at the College of the Canyons website and then attempt to match it to a community college in your area.
