Ethics clarification

[Gooberman11]

I am looking at an "Applied Business Management Ethics" course with a BUS label. Will this work for the Ethics section? I am concerned about it being a Business course if it is being used for a Liberal Arts Degree. TESC has their ethics courses under PHI.
Any experience or advice would be appreciated.

The course sounds very interesting but the only way to know for sure is to confer with TESC. Why not just knock out the easy SL Business Ethics course? You could always then take the other course for free elective credit. There may even be a bit of subject material overlap.

A couple of reasons.
1) The person it is for hasn"t decided if they will be for sure going TESC, so they'd like to have an actual "college" class instead of ACE certified to keep options open.
2) The cost is basically the same
3) It is an online course with good reviews, so basically the same concept as SL
4) That SL Ethics course is expiring. I am sure it will come back, but TESC is changing their requirements and what they accept so often that it is becoming difficult to plan ahead. A course from a college hopefully will ease the burden of keeping up with all the ACE changes.
I was just hoping someone had some experience in this area. Thanks.

At TESC, the Straighterline Ethics course translates to an upper-level philosophy course: Ethics and the Business Professional - PHI-384. Still, I doubt TESC will give credit for both. They sound pretty similar and the content is probably similar. So the Straighterline class works if you are sure you want TESC. But if you choose something else, a business class will be a hard sell for a liberal arts ethics requirement.
Excelsior College, for one, did not allow me to use SL's business class to fulfill the liberal arts ethics requirement.

Any idea about COSC?
Do they accept the Business Ethics in the Gen Ed Ethics requirement?

I had approval to use it for that when I was there.

I used the SL ethics course in my gen ed at COSC also.
