I found that some courses are accepted by TESC that are not accepted by FCC, and some courses that are accepted by FCC are not accepted by TESC. I sent TESC an email to see if they can transfer credit beyond their raw transfer.
Here is their response
Quote:I know Frederick Community College also applies College Credit to FEMA Courses
Quote:They have some courses that are not reviewed by TESC.
If the courses not reviewed by TESC are translated into credit via Frederick Community College, would they be eligible for transfer into TESC?
