MichaelGates Wrote:It is amazing how much discussion has been had over the fact that I sent my FEMA and USFA transcripts to Thomas Edison State College and got 39 credits for the FEMA Independent Study Courses and 3 credits for Fire Academy Independent Study Courses for a total of $250 using the TESC Credit Bank and military discount which gives a lower cost and unlimited credits, and then got Excelsior to transfer all of these to my Excelsior transcript at no additional cost. Wait till you see what I do next. No hints.

FEMA Independent Study Courses for College Credit
Ditto... I've been watching this thread since it started and can't believe the amount of discussion. Which is good especially when it comes to a new way to earn (free) credits.
I took seven FEMA courses 12 years ago when I was on active duty and thought I did well at that time when I paid $30 a course to get them official accepted at Lewis & Clark Community College. And now I just had to take four more because of a military requirement and will probably complete the Professional Development Series. To bad I only need upper level courses for Excelsior. However, I might be able to use them for my A.S. in Public Safety Management.
