Every Woodmont degree program reserves a portion of total credits for electives, which gives students flexibility to round out their program.
How many elective credits do I need for my Woodmont degree?
Woodmont's degree programs each define an elective credit minimum within the total (60 credits for the Associate, 120 for the Bachelor's). The specific count varies by program. Check Woodmont's current academic catalog for the exact elective credit requirement.

Is elective credit 'worth less' than named course credit?
No — credit is credit toward your Woodmont degree. Elective credits count fully toward the 60-credit Associate or 120-credit Bachelor's total.

About this course

Understanding Foundations of Leadership for your Woodmont credit.

What is Foundations of Leadership?

Foundations of Leadership is a course about how people guide teams, make decisions, and influence organizations. It introduces major leadership theories, leadership styles, and the relationship between leadership and management, with attention to communication, authority, and workplace decision-making.

How the course teaches you

Foundations of Leadership is a self-paced online course, so you work through the video lessons on your own schedule. Each lesson is paired with quizzes and an assignment, and the course ends with a final exam. When you complete it, the resulting transcript credit is what Woodmont College recognizes as a General Elective under the articulation agreement.

How it helps beyond the classroom

The course covers how leaders guide teams, make decisions, communicate with authority, and resolve conflict, along with the ethical and legal questions that come up in organizations. These skills apply to supervising staff, leading a project, or presenting a recommendation to senior management. At Woodmont, the three credits count as a General Elective, so they can fill open elective hours in a BS in Business, BS in Technology, or BS in Psychology plan.

Skills you walk away with

Compare classical and contemporary leadership theoriesApply leadership styles to workplace situationsUse decision-making models for business choicesCommunicate effectively in leadership rolesManage conflict within teams and organizationsWrite mission and vision statementsPlan and run effective meetings

Taking this course toward Woodmont

After you complete Foundations of Leadership, your transcript is sent to Woodmont College. Woodmont's registrar applies the credit as a General Elective, so it counts toward your total credit hours and elective requirements rather than a named course. Before enrolling, check whether your BS in Business, BS in Technology, or BS in Psychology degree plan still has open elective hours. Transfer credit is capped at 84 credits, or 70% of the degree, and this course uses part of that allowance.

Who this course is for

This course suits working adults who manage or expect to manage people, degree-finishers who need a few more elective hours, career changers moving toward supervisory roles, and cost-conscious students who would otherwise pay Woodmont's $360 per credit for elective coursework. Woodmont recognizes it only as a General Elective, so it counts toward total credit hours and elective requirements, and all transferred credit is subject to the 84-credit (70%) limit. It is a poor fit for students who need a course that satisfies a specific required major or general education slot, since its Woodmont equivalency is elective-only.
