2 portfolio questions: PLA TESU and extra credits

[Joeman200]

We understand WHY you want to do a PLA.  But why would you not just go straight through TESU?  Why involve Learning Counts in the first place?

Also, FYI, it is much cheaper/easier to just find other courses to test out of if you're only talking about a single course.  Most people take advantage of the inexpensive costs for this at TESU to get credit for multiple courses.

It's for the Criminal Justice requirement, "G. Public Policy and Criminal Justice".  I think we've discussed the course before in previous threads.  Rather than take the course I thought I would first try with the cheaper option of PLA.     

The reasoning behind not starting with TESU is because of what I've read about their employee trying to force the 100/200 courses.    I would think it easier to submit a PLA with learning counts and have them (aren't they NCCRS?) transfer to TESU then to deal with TESU directly.

Do any of the CC's in your State do PLA?

I'd have to look into that as I just recently moved to a new state.

@swalke321    I would think TESU would accept learningcounts.  This says they "offer" it, but you have to submit info to get the details https://imgur.com/a/bHK2f

TESU charges one fee for up to 12 credits I think.  What class are you looking to get credit for?

The extra credits I could try to get (if I were going through the PLA process anyway) would be for firefighting, CPR, and music theory.
