IBM SkillsBuild offers 12 ACE credits
#21
If I were you, I'd send the Credly transcript right now. BTW, bear in mind that the people at the TESU Registrar entering and mapping the credits really take some time lately. When you send it, it takes about 2 days until they send you an email that they received a transcript. After this email, it may take another 5 working days, but in some cases, it took 10 or more working days.
If you have such a huge amount of credits to send, do it now. I'm pretty sure they'll need some time to work through that.

Additionally, I don't know your current student status at TESU (not enrolled, applied and waiting, applied but not registered for any semester, etc.) Sending updated transcripts on a regular basis, especially in the case of ACE credits, helps you see which credits were accepted or not and which of them turn out to be upper-level or not (bear in mind that some lower-level ACE credits are - in very few cases - accepted as upper-level).

Just did the Data Analytics, it was as fast to complete as the other (over a weekend, no issue, "zero to hero")

Hey @infradata.it@gmail.com,
have you already decided which degree you wanna pursue at TESU? Or you still wanna collect more creds till you're sure what you wanna do with the creds? Have you already sent any creds to TESU in the meantime?

(slight off topic, but plz PM me if you want specifics, on basically w/e)

TBH: I am so nervous, I want all my stuff, I can get, minus the RA's before I move on it.... I am nervous, near "frightened" (that somehow I will be found "unqualifiable", in an odd twist of fate... "pure paranoia, but man")

Credits ... I think I sucked up "all the free/hyper low cost ones" ... I lack the ability to manipulate time-space (I need to do it in time, not self paced)... so I must wait for terms to finish for some of the RA's
The "last, last" of my RA credits will be with MACU via TEL Learning = Intro to IT with "same name", and "TESU's Religion" with "Introduction to Christianity" (TEL Learning's: "Music Appreciation", looks an "easy option" also)

Degree > BS Cyber, its the next notch over what I "do" (level 2 & 3 support, and various op/admin/generic) for a living, without any degree (started "IT'ing" around 1999....employed FT by early '00's)

These are all the "application + certificate" level ("blue, with pointed bottom", hold, or will hold, ACE credits) badges, that can "currently be accessed":
This "appears" (I am assuming) to be a "newer" program (MCIT/LTI) and is "rolling out" still
Times misreport, they range from 58 to 68 hours (60-70 hours, vast over assumption, IMHO), each

The "Dive Deeper" section of this page: https://skillsbuild.org/college-students...telligence
Has the "Application" level AI badges, but not the Certificate (I cant find it)

I'm not done yet. The Cybersecurity one ends next week. I'll update when I send it in to TESU and hear back
