The OM concentration cannot easily be "tested out" of. You are going to have to take a few courses, either through TESC, or transferred in. Check to see if Penn Foster has some cheap options, or perhaps your local school.
When I did mine, I took took the Operations Management TECEP, and I took Total Quality Management through TESC. The TQM course only had two students in it LOL, me and another guy. It was interesting to say the least. The professor basically had to act as a student so we could "respond to two posts" like is required of the syllabus. But I learned a bit and it was pretty easy. The textbook is really boring though.
The rest of my OM credits were transferred in because my Military Tech school credits were in Purchasing/Contracting.
If you have an APICS credential, you may be able to convince TESC to award credit for it. The rest of the degree plan is easy because you just need to follow a standard BSBA degree plan (except for the area of concentration of course).
Thanks Prioko.
OP is not easy to test out. I am taking courses in TESC. Will also check Penn Foster see if I can take a few there. No APICS credential yet, but im working towards getting that so that I can get credit for it.
