Since Business Law transfers (to UMPI) I hope this does too. The transfer tool doesn't show business ethics from Saylor transfers yet, but someone recently confirmed it did. What do you guys think?
Please check the UMPI Transfer Database as it finally updated with my Saylor transfer today. Saylor's BUS 200 Business Ethics transfers to UMPI as BUS 353 Legal and Ethical Issues in Business. The Saylor course was not very difficult and I passed the direct credit exam with about 6-7 hours of actual studying and a $5 exam proctoring fee.
I'd hope that Sophia's Business Ethics would transfer as the same or perhaps as BUS 352 Business Law II (might be a stretch). Either way, with 2 touchstones, I'd say the Saylor route is superior, if they transfer as the same course.
An ethics course isn't going to transfer as a BLaw course. They are 2 very different things. BUS353 isn't really a law course. It's about how laws have an impact on ethics. Just because something is legal doesn't make it ethical. For example, some people don't find the stand your ground laws to be ethical. They are legal in some states. Good to see more Saylor courses in the transfer database!
