The majority of the our 8 to 10-Week Instructor-Led Online Courses have received up to 3 College Credit Recommendations from
the
American Council on Education (ACE).
ACE evaluates and makes credit recommendations, which are intended to guide
colleges and universities as they consider awarding credit to persons who have successfully completed college-level instruction.
Required courses have been successfully completed with a passing grade (D or better)
Overall grade point average (GPA) must be 2.00.
All courses must carry 1.00 to 3.00 credits unless otherwise noted.
Up to 50% of the course credits needed for a diploma or certificate may be transferred from a college, university, or other
educational organization. CFTWS will also consider awarding credit for other training programs (including internal training) on a
case-by-case basis.
Please use this Student Guide to keep track of diploma and certificate eligibility requirements for courses you have completed.
