Principles of Robotic Theory CSC430S (3 credits)
Database Management ITS410S (3 credits) - Probably would overlap with SDC's database management
Database Concepts MIS407S (3 credits) - Could overlap with SDC
Cloud Computing and Big Data MIS440S (3 credits) - Might only work for the BSBA CIS but who knows.
This has not been verified as a viable path because CSU says that the exams are only available to "enrolled students" but the wording on the admissions page makes it look like non-degree seeking students are also eligible to take the exams.
A few days ago, I tried to enroll in CSU as a non-degree seeking student, and I had the chance to talk with an enrollment counselor. He basically told me that they cannot guarantee that self-study assessments will transfer as UL courses to other Universities because those are "internal credits"
I don't know if this has been discussed before, but has anyone explored the alternative of the Cloud+ certification? According to TESU, it transfers as CYB-450. If APUS ISSC326 transfers as CIS-430 according to a previous post of LevelUP, should Cloud+ also work for the BACS? I mean, it's the same topic, and the materials are somewhat aligned; besides, the CompTIA academic store has a voucher for the exam for only $163
