Excelsior AAS Tech Studies

[colinsr]

Hello,

Any experts have advice for how to fill the last 8 credits in Computer Technologies for my Associates?

I'm trying to find things I can do at my own pace. I have four kids and the time I 'find' for studying is inconsistent. I know of a few Penn foster courses.

My ultimate goal is going to be a B Sc in MIS from Excelsior.

Thanks for your help!

i'm finishing up my bs-technology in computer technologies at excelsior now. i ended up getting most of comp tech credits from penn foster. there werent many other cheaper options. if the course requirements are easier for the applied science degree, you may also be able to use certification credits that can be easy if you're already working in IT. I used a bunch but they only counted as technical electives for me. for my last class i'm taking systems analysis and design from adams state and it's independent study at your own pace for upper level credit.

How did you like the Penn foster courses? How many Comp tech credits did you get from PF?
Originally I was going to try for the B Sc in Technology in Computer Technologies but got scared away by the lack of testing options out there. People said it is hard to find study materials for the ICCP exams.
Alternatively there is the Game Institute, but I think Penn foster may work best for me.

Thanks for your feedback!
