This is a good thread and all I'm really interested in these days. I'm taking some from home university but it can be difficult to find ACE transfer credit.

The COSC credit evaluation system has this:

https://www.charteroak.edu/prior-learning-assessment/senior-professional-human-resources-sphr.php

Potentially 18 graduate credits in HRM and MGT.

Okay, so there are two separate credentials with graduate credit:

Professional in Human Resources:

https://www.charteroak.edu/prior-learning-assessment/senior-professional-human-resources-sphr.php

Training and Development - 3 credits upper level or graduate
Performance, Compensation and Benefits - 3 credits upper level or graduate

Senior Professional in Human Resources:

https://www.charteroak.edu/prior-learning-assessment/senior-professional-human-resources-sphr.php

HRM 310, HRM 312, MGT 101, MGT 431, MGT 425, MGT 467: All rated at upper level undergraduate or graduate

Here's another COSC credential service graduate course:

It is graduate credit in happiness, or maybe psychology.

This is a corrected link from my original post. This class is more expensive.

Just an FYI, while these would be inexpensive credits, they aren't transferable to other schools, and they don't seem to apply to COSC's only Master's degree (MS in Organizational Effectiveness & Leadership).  They also only allow transfer of 6cr into the program.  So I'm not sure what the point of these would be.

Also, the certifications require that you're already working in HR before you can take the exams:
PHR requires a BA+2 years of experience (or other combinations)
SPHR requires a BA+5 years of experience (or other combinations)

And, these are not slam-dunk exams.  They take months of study, even for experienced HR managers.
