Ok those aren't courses though except the SM course. Those are certifications which are different. Yes, some schools will give some credit for the certs, but they're not typically courses like courses from Sophia or InstantCert.

Yes, some schools will give some credit for the certs, but they're not typically courses like courses from Sophia or InstantCert. Google IT is 12 ACE credits and the Microsoft cert I got is 2 ACE credits. I know certs are different than "ACE courses" but in my case all except my CompTIA certs are actually both. Not sure why someone would add a badge for just a "regular" course to their LinkedIn.

Little update for folks.....
I finished a Sophia class today and was instantly able to add the badge to my Acclaim account. I cannot add past completed courses however. The badge can also be linked to my LinkedIn profile which I did just for kicks to see what it does. If it's a class in something that relates to your major/concentration and/or job, it may be nice to have on your LinkedIn. If it's not something that relates, then it's probably not beneficial. Your mileage may vary.

Badges for Sophia classed completed after 11/4/20 will provide a link to add to Acclaim. It's the badges for the classes completed prior to 11/4 that nobody has a clear answer for yet.

Like I said I finished the class today and have a badge for that and cannot add my past courses. There have been reports on here that Sophia has told some that the past classes will not be added. Time will tell.
