New Coursera ACE Recommendations

[spohara]

It looks like a fair amount of new or revamped courses.  As a TESU BACS graduate who did a speed run to the finish line, I've going back and doing the IBM DevOps to fill in some gaps (TDD, CI/CD, Microservices, Containerized deployments, etc) that I need for work.  Looks like DevOps and Full Stack new upper level recommendations, plus there are other certs worth checking out so you can graduate with the skills you want (or just be like me and go back and fill in the gaps as you need - it is impossible to learn everything, but I feel like everyone is trying to do DevOps in the work world)

Interesting indeed, are they part of the Google Plus membership that's going on for $199US/year until the 27th of Jan? I noticed a couple or more of the IBM ones are somewhat like duplicates of the Google Certs, I wonder if the content is too similar and will yield duplicate transfer credits...

For the Microsoft Azure Security Engineer Associate (AZ-500) Professional Certificate course on Coursera, I strongly suspect Cloud Solutions Architecture UL will probably slot in as CLD-4200 at TESU, which counts towards BA CS AOS. Combined with the Google Cloud Data Analytics Certificate, which comes in as 2 UL AOS courses, that's an awesome development!

For TESU, the Microsoft Azure Security Engineer Associate (AZ-500) Professional Certificate course on Coursera came preplanned as:

ITS-3630 Windows Configuration Server (counts towards BS IT Core)
CYB-4510 Cloud Security (???, probably counts as BS IT Elective)
CYB-4500 Cloud Computing (counts towards BS IT Core)
CLD-4200 Architecting Cloud Solutions (counts towards BA CS UL AOS)

What does "came preplanned" mean?

Pre-Approved, Pre-Planned, doesn't mean too much... We've been telling students to get everything sent into TESU and also ask to make sure ABC classes hits XYZ requirements. At the time of transferring these credits, the courses came in as intended and hit these transfers. It doesn't mean it'll come in the same way X months/years later as ACE may have changed their recommendations to LL/UL, less/more or no credit.
