I'm not talking about diploma mills.. take my case: i have worked in the mechanical engineering field for 30 yrs, but have only one yr of college.. no degree. i would like to finish school and get a degree, but here in california they do not as a rule allow credits for practical work experience.
i do not call myself an engineer as it is disrespectful of those who have ground thru 4 yrs of school to get that diploma...BUT on the other hand, i have so often had to hold my breath and bite my tongue and listen to a younger, very inexperienced engineer talk absolutely silly about something... i have my very stong points, like it would be absurd for me to have to take elementary drafting, as i have done it all my life, and could probably teach the course.. but i have my weak points, mainly advanced math and figuring moments of stress, etc, and i want to know are there any accredited schools that allow credits in a case like this...mainstream schools, not diploma mills....thanks
