TEEX for Pierpont AAS and later TESU - Poloros - 09-20-2023
Good day! I am currently completing the last remaining credits toward Pierpont's BOG AAS program through TEEX credits (Cybersecurity for Business Professionals/Everyone/IT Professionals), with an eye on a liberal arts degree from TESU later down the road. After several days of reading every post pertaining to TEEX transfer credits, I am having trouble figuring out my best course of action that maximizes these courses with Pierpont and later TESU. It is my understanding that each institution accepts these credits differently, therefore I likely need to take a more calculated approach than if I were only dealing with one of them. A few initial questions come to mind:
1) Does Pierpont only accept TEEX credits in the groupings CYB101, CYB201, CYB301? Has anybody managed to transfer them in individually?
2) Does TESU only accept individual credits? It would appear so according to: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/TEEX_Cybersecurity_Equivalencies
3) There has been a lot of talk about submitting TEEX individually/grouping, however I am not sure how that actually plays out. Is there a point where I make that selection? I want to make sure that I am paying attention come time to transfer to ACE. It'd be a shame if I commit to the wrong option.
4) Is there a way to have both individual as well as grouped badges on Credly?
To summarize, I want to maximize TEEX Cybersecurity credits for both Pierpont's BOG AAS now, and later a liberal studies bachelor's degree from TESU. Any guidance is much appreciated! I wouldn't have even known about these possibilities without this community reporting back from the field, and for that I am obliged.

@Poloros, Welcome to the board... It's a good option to go from the Pierpont BOG AAS to a Bachelors degree... We usually recommend going to UMPI by laddering your credits from Pierpont to them... You should give more details about your budget, commitments, study habits and many more variables that I ask for in the addendum/template here: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Forum-Degree-Planning-Advice

I don't know if they accept them individually. Do you get both the individual and the grouped badges in Credly? I'm not sure how it works since everything switched to Credly.

Ditto.

You don't make the choice, the school makes the choice for you.
