About this course

Understanding Globalization and International Management for your CrestPoint credit.

What is Globalization and International Management?

Globalization and International Management looks at how businesses operate across countries and why managing them is different from managing a company that only works in one market. It covers topics like global competition, international strategy, culture, trade rules, outsourcing, and how managers lead teams made up of people from different backgrounds and locations.

How the course teaches you

Globalization and International Management is a self-paced online course with video lessons, quizzes, assignments, attendance tracking, and a final exam. The grade is based on 25% Attendance, 25% Quizzes, 25% Assignments, and 25% Final Exam, and when you finish, the transcript can be sent to CrestPoint University for review. At CrestPoint, that transcript credit is recognized as BUS-201 – International Business, which is a named course equivalency in the catalog.

How it helps beyond the classroom

The course builds practical understanding of global business, cross-cultural communication, and international decision-making, which can matter in jobs that involve customers, vendors, or teams across borders. At CrestPoint, the credit fits into degree planning for programs such as the Associate of Paralegal Studies and the Bachelor of Business Administration, where BUS-201 – International Business may support progress toward program requirements. It is also useful if you want coursework that reflects how companies operate in more than one market.

Skills you walk away with

Taking this course toward CrestPoint

After you complete the course, your transcript is sent for CrestPoint University review, and the registrar applies the assigned equivalency as BUS-201 – International Business under the signed articulation agreement with UPI Study. That named recognition means the credit is not just counted as an unspecified transfer course; it is matched to a specific CrestPoint catalog course and can be used in degree planning with greater clarity. CrestPoint accepts up to 72 transfer credits, which is 60% of the degree, so this course can be one part of a larger transfer plan. CrestPoint also accepts transfer credit recommended by ACE, NCCRS, and CCAP, but this course has its own assigned CrestPoint equivalent.

Who this course is for

This course is a good fit for students planning ahead for CrestPoint who want a named transfer result, BUS-201 – International Business, rather than an elective with uncertain placement. It can help working adults, students finishing a degree, or people changing fields who want to stay mindful of CrestPoint’s 72-credit transfer ceiling. It is not the best choice if you need a course that is already tied to a different subject area at CrestPoint or if you are trying to transfer more than the allowed maximum.
