GGU has a program with Study.com called Aspire, and it's $300/cr to take courses at GGU.  There's a discounted quarterly rate at Study.com.  So your company would end up paying all of the GGU tuition ($300/cr x 30cr) and I don't think there are many fees besides that, but you'd have to check.

There are other schools where this is similar - almost all of the costs are tuition, no fees, and so your company would foot the bill.  They take ACE credits, most of them up to 90cr worth, and then you have to take 30cr at the school.  I know of like 10 of them.

Thank you for this!!!
Do the Uexcel exams count as credit through EC?  I am already scheduled to take the Social Psychology exam.  If so, i would only need the Info Lit (1) Corner and Cap (6) and one other EC 3 credit course?
