How do you explain your degree at a job interview when asked?

There are no dates for transfer or assessment credits, so they would have no idea how long those took you unless you tell them. I doubt an interviewer would even think to ask how long it took you to complete your degree. I think they would be more interested in "what" ACE credits are.
Someone else could give better advice than me as to how to explain an online degree. I have never had to do that.

I just looked at mine, and you're right, there are no dates unless you took a course or exam (TECEP) at TESU.  So there's nothing to explain there.

If anyone asked about ACE/NCCRS credit, I would just say that I was able to test out of a lot of courses because you had enough experience to make that possible.
