Rainbow MA in Happiness Studies via Centenary University
Posted by: Maltus - 10-05-2025, 03:24 PM - Forum: Graduate School Discussion - Replies (6)

Hey guys,

since I'm currently getting ready for my Exams an Fernuiversität Hagen I'm thinkg about what to do next.
Since I always was interested in positive psychology I looked into this MA in Happiness studies.

Normally I would avoid any programm with the word "studies" in it but this one would fit well into my coachingbusiness.
It is formally delvered by Centenary whic is RA nand H+ on Anabin. This very good since it would be leigable to start a PhD in Europe.
Only concern I have is: It only is 30 credits. Is that normal for Masters in the US? Seems a bit low to me and might caus trouble when trying to transfer tha Master's to Europe.

And the price is a bit stif at 17k USD I guess. Any thoughts?

  Accreditation database "not monitored"
Posted by: Stonybeach - 10-05-2025, 11:46 AM - Forum: Graduate School Discussion - Replies (17)

The US Department of Education states,
"Notice: Lapse of Appropriations
Due to a lapse of appropriations, information on this website may not be monitored or maintained. Inquiries may not receive a response until appropriations are enacted."
https://www.ed.gov/laws-and-policy/highe...reditation

My employer offers tuition reimbursement for education received from schools listed in the US Department of Education and are considered "recognized accredited schools" for the purpose of tuition reimbursement. Since the database is not currently updated, what other sources are available to demonstrate to my employer that the school is indeed accredited and would have been listed by the US Department of Education?

Thank you in advance.

  Basic Program - Year 3 Autumn
Posted by: Charles Fout - 10-05-2025, 10:51 AM - Forum: Off Topic - No Replies

My fall term begins this week

We will


In the Seminar, we read two classics texts seeking the ungrounded ground of reason, Euclid’s Elements and Descartes Meditations on First Philosophy. 

In the Tutorial we will engage in a close reading of a classic novel. The novel for 2025 is Tom Jones by Henry Fielding.
 
I surprised myself by enjoying "Tom Jones." I was hoping for a different novel. Now, I'm looking forward to discussing it with my cohort.

  Shutdown cancels sports games and dances for students at military-base schools
Posted by: Charles Fout - 10-05-2025, 09:16 AM - Forum: Military Discussion - Replies (5)

So... I find myself writing to the President and my Congressional delegation again.

It is unfathomable to me that these kids are being punished.

Extracurricular activities were such an integral part of my own high school experience.

"The Department of Defense Education Activity, or DoDEA, which operates 161 schools on or near military bases worldwide, has halted all extracurricular activities, including sports, for more than 67,000 students."

Key topics covered in the training include:

  • preparing students for a UK education  
  • student experience, accommodation and cost of living  
  • values and ethics  
  • visas and immigration

The training is 100% online and it is free of charge. Modules can be taken in any order, at any time. Experienced agents and counsellors can go straight to the assessment, saving study time. 
Please note that new users who register on the UK agent and counsellor training and engagement hub but do not log in again within three months will be archived from our system. Certified agents and counsellors need to recertify every two years. 
UK certified counsellor certificate and digital badge 
When you successfully complete the training course and confirm your understanding of the national code of ethical practice for education agentsyou will receive an online certificate and digital badge from the British Council. They will be visible in the ‘My Awards’ section of the UK training and engagement hub when you are logged in. 
The certificate and digital badge, which are valid for two years, allow you to share your achievement and show that you have the appropriate knowledge and awareness of the UK as a study destination. 
Please note that a certificate and badge can only be applied to an individual rather than a whole organisation or business, and that the British Council does not formally endorse, accredit or validate you.
If you are UK certified, you can also add your details to the database of certified counsellors, which is used by education providers, students and students’ parents.

  BABA to BLS
Posted by: BetterThisYearThanLast - 10-02-2025, 02:44 PM - Forum: UMPI - University of Maine at Presque Isle Discussion - Replies (15)

I've seen contributors here with BLS PM & IS in their signatures and I'm wondering what I need to say to my success coach to have my degree changed from BABA Project Management to BLS PM & IS. Is it two separate degrees that I apply for simultaneously? I asked about "double minor" and she said "no thats not possible". What am I missing?

I've done a what-if via the student center and after completing 345 via Coursera and 401 at UMPI, I will satsified all requirments for BLS Management, MIS & PM.

UMPI just released the following MSB concentrations:

FIN - Finance
PM - Project Management

I was set to start the MAOL on October 27th but just switched over to SCM, which was my long term goal. I just wasn't sure when they were going to release it.
