" I don't need badges that make my LinkedIn profile look like I was an over-ambitious scout of some kind." That's what it feels like. Pretty childish is another term that comes to mind, like a gold star or happy face on a math paper.

Send yourself a Credly transcript email to ensure it shows up right too.

Also, the Study class doesn't show because it's an NCCRS (NOT Ace) accredited course. You have to go directly through Study to get that one.

It shows up on my transcript to myself, even before I changed settings. Maybe because it's to me ? I dunno.....

That's what I thought but they won't accept it from Study. Weird, right ?

"Badges? We don't need no stinking badges" 

Dating myself badly. 

I had a problem with credly where tesu would not accept some of my coursea badges because they didn't have the ACE endorsement, but others did. I contacted coursea and they removed the ones that didn't have ACE descriptions (for some courses I had two badges) and added the correct ones.

Not really. Peirpont wants someone to vouch for the credit. For the ACE courses, that is ACE (via Credly). For the NCCRS credit, they are willing to have Excelsior (an RA school) vouch for it. In neither case do they accept Study.com's word for it. TESU accepts them directly from Study because they have an agreement with them.

They should take SDC's word for it, though, since they claim to accept NCCRS courses.

Well, actually it's my understanding that they accept transcripts from Study or have in the past and they shouldn't need TESU to "vouch" for anything since they're listed on the NCCRS website as a college that accepts NCCRS courses. It makes no sense.

For those who had trouble getting NCCRS accepted, has anyone ever tried using this? I wonder how successful NCCRS is at "advocating" for you:

Quote:If you encounter difficulties in receiving transfer credit, please complete this form to request assistance from NCCRS. NCCRS will email the college official and advocate on your behalf to request that the college award credit for the learning experience(s) you completed.

I filled out that request. I haven't heard anything about it yet. My study transcript was sent to EC and now I have admissions folks emailing me like crazy. It shouldn't be such a process to get this course accepted.
