Tips for Learning Efficiently on Study.com

[bjcheung77]

A lot of folks here already use Study.com for ACE-approved credits, but with the recent updates — new pricing, faster grading, and the mobile app — it’s now easier to plan and complete courses efficiently. Here are a few tips for getting the most out of the platform:
 
Use the $95/month plan strategically. You’re allowed to enroll in two courses at a time, but once you finish one, you can start another — meaning there’s no real cap on how many you can complete each month.
 
Keep momentum by overlapping courses. Since you can begin new classes while previous assignments are still being graded, there’s no need to slow down. This approach works especially well if you’re trying to wrap up several courses before a new term at WGU, TESU, or UMPI.
 
Use the new mobile app for micro study sessions. You can complete lessons, quizzes, and track progress directly from your phone — convenient for fitting in quick study blocks during breaks or commutes.
 
Take advantage of open-book finals. Without proctoring, finals are easier to schedule and manage. Keeping organized notes as you go makes these exams faster and less stressful.
 
Track progress through ACE early. As you near completion, confirm that your courses appear correctly in your ACE dashboard so transcript requests go smoothly when it’s time to transfer.
 
The recent platform updates make it easier to maintain steady progress and build efficient study habits — especially if you’re balancing school with work or family.

How do I check that it's tracking in an ACE dashboard somewhere?

Basically... To clarify and elaborate, it's the ACE/Credly dashboard that shows your badges, at the bottom, it should indicate that the class has the ACE recommendation for college credit.  If it doesn't show with this detail, institutions may not accept it when you submit the transcripts to them...  Here's a very recent post illustrating what I meant, you may want to review the entire thread: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...#pid447322
