The Office of Professional Learning Review

Here's your roadmap to finishing your University degree faster with PLR credits from Westinghouse Electric Company Training and Operational Services courses.

How many college credits is it worth?

The most current University review identified up to 39 credit(s) in course equivalencies at Thomas Edison State University for successfully completing Westinghouse Electric Company Training and Operational Services courses. A student's credit eligibility is determined according to the submission of appropriate documentation as well as the documented date of successful training completion. If you completed your training outside the effective dates listed in the following table, check the notes below the table for any reference to an earlier University review.

The training components have been divided into the following courses:

*There is significant duplication in the college-equivalent subject areas among courses marked with an asterisk. Therefore, learners will generally be able to utilize credits from just one course, even if multiple courses are completed in this set.

 

What can I study?

 

How do I get started?

  • Submit documentation of successful completion
    Westinghouse maintains internal and customer training records to verify completion of training. To obtain course completion transcripts, contact Deborah E. Ruff, Training and Operational Services Administrative Assistant, Westinghouse Electric Company, 680 Waltz Mill Road, Madison, PA 15663; (724) 722-6653; ruffed@westinghouse.com

 

Can I transfer PLR credit to another institution?

If you are seeking to transfer the PLR credits to another college, the decision whether or not to accept these credits in transfer rests with that college. It is the student's responsibility to ensure that the receiving institution's academic policy will allow transfer of each credit. Thomas Edison State University offers a non-degree service called Individual Learning Account that may be helpful.
