Guided Electives
Guided electives are upper division courses relevant to the student’s educational
and career goals. Guided electives are chosen in consultation with the student’s
academic advisor. Courses listed as “Supporting Courses” may not be used to fulfill
the guided electives requirement. Professional Training Credits
There are two additional ways that credit can be given for professional training
students obtained elsewhere. If the training has been transcripted by an accredited
college, students may transfer that credit to WNMU. They may receive credit if
their training programs are recommended for credit by the American Council on
Education (ACE). Most Federal Law Enforcement Training Center basic academies
are recommended as appropriate for college credit by ACE. |
