TRANSCRIPT EVALUATIONS

Pre-Approved Distance Learning Courses

The only course approved as a lecture/laboratory combination is Physics for Health Professionals – PHYS 1010 from the University of New England.

The courses listed below may only be used to satisfy the lecture portion. All Chemistry, Biology, Microbiology and Organic Chemistry laboratory sessions must be completed in a traditional classroom setting.

The Environmental Health Specialist Registration Program offers the following list of pre-approved distance learning courses, in most of the core science subjects and environmental coursework, to satisfy the educational requirements of Health and Safety Code 106635.

The existing protocol for the REHS program to approve new correspondence or online coursework (lecture only) requires a request for approval submitted to the REHS program and an individual review of the course syllabus and content, in order to determine whether the course meets the standards approval. This applies to courses that have already been completed and/or courses in which one plans to enroll. All coursework must be completed at a regionally accredited institution.
