PF Prerequisites question - MRHTOAD76 - 06-03-2012
Hey guys quick question. I just noticed for PF ICS-0218 / BUS 425 Strategic Business Management and PF ICS-0219 BUS 430 - International Business they have Prerequisites.
(tried searching PF Prerequisites and Penn Foster Prerequisites and found nothing)
Course Number: BUS 430
Course Title: International Business
Prerequisites:
Introduction to Business, Principles of Management (BUS 110),
Marketing (MKT 301), and Corporate Finance (FIN 310).
Course Number: BUS 425
Course Title: Strategic Business Management
Prerequisites:
Principles of Management (BUS 110), Corporate Finance (FIN 310),
Marketing (MKT 301), and Business Law 1 (BUS 213).
I can try to call tomorrow ,but was wondering if anyone here has taken either of the above without having completed BUS110. I was going to do CLEP or am currently taking some of the classes listed as a pre-req. So if anyone has taken BUS425 OR 430 please let me know.
I don't know if they would want a transcript showing I took or am going to take ,but this could really change the order.
I did just sign up for Financial Management (ace ICS-0152) and it appears the exams are online.

I took International Business as an individual course for UL credit for TESC BALS and they didn't say anything about prerequisites for this course.

Thanks man, you were correct of course. Finally got signed up I read the threads saying to call the Workforce Dept ,but had slipped my mind. Definitely call that dept to sign up for individual classes that aren't on the online websign up part. Also just in case someone decides to do this ,since I signed up online for one course I will have a different student number for the Workforce development part. She says any other classes I add can be put on same account but they are two different systems. So to not go through this (like I am) you may want to call first and get setup.
I'm waiting on my books ,but from what I can see on the Financial Management it shows me 5 tests and a final all appear to be online. I'll update this and the other courses I take when I'm done.
I may have to retake programming over since TESC doesn't like the description from my community college. Tesc email said they won't take Penn Fosters INT215 - Programming in JAVA either (will confirm with adviser on phone tomorrow I'm sick of this e-mail crap)
So I may be reviewing Penn Fosters Visual Basic course also. (although ace says Version Dates: 04/01/1999 - 02/28/2011 ) She says that was the only option I listed that was acceptable.
