TESU Business/Society - splirow - 02-08-2023

I took Business Ethics from instantcert in 2021. Based on other post, it comes in BUS 205 Business/Society in TESU. 

Does it cover area H.? Has any one tried? I also have Intro to Ethics from Sophia. So that should cover Ethical leadership requirement.

Does any one know?

I don't know what "area H" is.

If you're getting a business degree at TESU, I don't think it counts in the Business core (where Business in Society would come in), instead it comes in as meeting your ethics requirement in the Gen Ed area. So then Intro to Ethics will come in as a Humanities course.

I'm a tad confused, if you took it in 2021, you should have it already in your degree plan. Did you get it evaluated already? Were did it fall for you? Is it in the other courses below the requirements?


RE: TESU Business/Society - splirow - 08-10-2023

Hi All... Let me try this again....

I have both 'Intro to Ethics' from Sophia and 'Business Ethics' from Instantcert. Does 'Intro to Ethics' count towards the General Education area while 'Business Ethics' is categorized under Business in Society?

Similarly, for 'Principles of Management', if I have both, would the Sophia version be classified under AOS UL for BABS General Management, and a versions from CLEP/Saylor/Study be categorized as Business Core?


RE: TESU Business/Society - rachel83az - 08-11-2023

Intro to Ethics will go in gen eds under Ethical Leadership. But I think so will InstantCert's Business Ethics. For Business/Society, your best option is Business 120: International Business on Study.com.

For Principles of Management: Sophia, Study.com, Saylor, and CLEP are all MAN-210(0). They will overlap. They cannot be used in different areas because TESU considers them to be the same class from different sources. Davar's Principles of Management used to be considered a different class, with a different number, but it will most likely also come in as MAN-2100 now.

It was my understanding the Sophia's Principle of Management come in as UL?

If you didn't already transfer it in, it appears you're out of luck: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Sophia.org_Equivalency_List

This is why we tell students to transfer courses to TESU on a regular basis. Once it's in, you're good. But if they change the equivalency and you haven't already sent it in... too bad.


RE: TESU Business/Society - bjcheung77 - 08-11-2023

I repeat my questions from post #3 as well, in other words, what's the situation? Could you screenshot your evaluation without your personal details... "I'm a tad confused, if you took it in 2021, you should have it already in your degree plan. Did you get it evaluated already? Were did it fall for you? Is it in the other courses below the requirements?"

All the courses I took from Sophia since 2022 have not been evaluated yet including the Intro to Ethics. I am finishing up on my Coursera courses (PM and Digital MK) before I send them. The business ethics I took from Instantcert in 2021 were evaluated and placed on "GE Ethical Leadership requirement".

What I am asking is if when I get Intro to Ethics evaluated, it should come in "GE Ethical Leadership requirement" and as a result, does it push Business Ethics out and into Business/Society?

I still don't get what you are saying.... Sophia Principle of Management transfers as MAN 301 right??? When did that change?


RE: TESU Business/Society - rachel83az - 08-11-2023

You're too late. You didn't send in your transcripts. The equivalency changed. It happens. This is why you need to send in transcripts every couple of months and not wait until you think you're done with the degree to do so.

Why are you waiting?
