Coursera certificates - rachel83az - 03-15-2022
Have you taken any of Coursera's ACE-recommended certificates and transferred them to a school? If you don't see the equivalency listed on https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Coursera please report in to help future students!

I've got my evaluation from TESU today, and the Google PM cerficiate came in as:
MAN-235 Intro to Project Management
MAN-437 Effective Project Management
MAN-438 Mastering Project Management
All of them 3 credits courses.

There's also the Meta Social Media Marketing certificate - the Coursera cert is ACE recommended at 2cr LL in marketing, and if you took the certification exam from Meta (which may/may not be included in the Coursera course) that adds another 1cr LL in marketing. No clue how it transfers in anywhere (but I plan to figure out eventually).

That's better than I would have guessed. How was the difficulty level?

Even if it's not included, $150 for 3 credits isn't that bad for self-paced. Or $99 if you get the certificate free and have to pay for the exam.

Definitely better than I would have guessed, too. Too bad these don't fit into Business Core, but it's a great way for some BSBA students to meet UL requirements.

I did this course in lieu of the one from Saylor academy. That one was a nightmare and looked like it was made for some 90s style automotive project management instead of what's in use at tech companies today.
Since I work in a "modern agile environment", I did not look at the material and went straight for the quizes and assignments.
There were quite a few assignments, but all of them had detailed steps of exactly what you need to do, no original thinking was required. It was just typical busywork.
What was a bit disheartening were the peer reviews. Quite a few people submitted empty documents, or nothing at all, and even begged on the forum for reviews.
One more thing to note: The course is entirely doable in the free trial period.

Oh, the replies above give me hope that my certificates will be accepted by my school and I didn't waste time...

Which certificates did you take and what school are you trying to transfer them to?
