Im adding up my previous taken course to determine how many more hours I need to upgrage to certified.

I took some 3 unit college classes in the early 90's but how many classroom hours is that equivalent too?

I think they were twice a week classes but I cant remember if they were an hour or hour 1/2 or even 3 hours. Is there some rule of thumb the board uses to assign to classes based on the number of units.

I dont even know if the number of actual hours would be available anywhere, even from the college.

If you took full semester college classes, two times a week then most likely they are three credit hour classes. Typically twice a week classes last 1.5 hours per class.

So how many class room hours does that translate into?

Is that 30 hours for the whole class or more or less?

It translates to three college credit hours; three hours. It takes 124 college credit hours to get a bachelors degree last time I looked.

Thanks but thats not what Im asking.

There are a certain amount of classroom hours needed for qualifying education. Im not sure how many hours these classes would count for.

It was a whole semester for each class but I dont remeber how long they were. I think they were 3 hour classes twice a week but Im not sure since it was so long ago.

Isnt there some rule of thumb. Like a 3 unit college class translates into 30 hours or 60 hours or whatever?

Doug .. college equivalency, if thats what you are asking, is required in the amount of 21 or 30 hours I believe in specified areas outlined in the 2008 changes. Look at those requirements for college equivalency, they are stated in college hours not classroom hours.
I hope this helps.

Usually One College Hour Is About 13 Class Hours.
