[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The transcript key says they are worth one graduate credit unless the state requires 30 hours, which Virginia does not. [/quote] This is what the transcript key says "All professional development courses are graduate level, non-degree, semester credits. Each credit represents 15 clock hours or .5 semester hours (in states where semester hours require 30 contact hours) or 15 PDPs or 15 PDUs or 1.5 CEUs/15 OPI renewal units. They are transcribed as graduate level semester credits."[/quote] The state vdoe regs say 15 hours minimum (which these are), so FCPS is reading the key wrong. It is accredited just like all the other crap credits they accept (looking at you, North Tier). This is no different than those courses, they are just cheaper, so teachers jumped on getting their +30. Perhaps if FCPS went back to providing some practical Academy courses, this wouldn’t be such a big deal. [/quote]
