Here's how you do it:  Frederick Community College, a community college in Maryland, will transcribe the FEMA courses for you for a fee.  They charge $60 per credit hour (30*$60 = $1,800).  Each FEMA course is worth one semester hour of credit.  Remember, the extra 30 credits don't have to be in any particulary subject nor do they have to be graduate credits.  Frederick Community College will award "pass" credit for each one you submit to them.  This should be sufficient to meet the 150 hour rule. http://training.fema.gov/is/ http://www.frederick.edu/ http://www.frederick.edu/courses_and_programs/degree_emergen cy_management.aspx

Is this something that you are just stating, or do you know that it works for a fact? I need 30 credits to fulfill my 150 credit requirement, and I don't want to shell out all the money then find out that Nasba doesn't accept these credits from FCC. Just from reading the requirements FCC is accredited so "technically" it should work. I would just like some reassurance, and considering you posted the information, I figure you would have an answer.

Thanks,
