Saylor courses are NCCRS or ACE accredited and I know those have been accepted, unless you mean something else?

Well I know they don't take FEMA credits and those are ACE too, so I just wanted to see what other people's experiences were.

Most FEMA are not actual ace credits.

Are any of the FEMA credits, other than the TEEX partnership stuff, actually ACE recommended? I thought that's why TESU and EC (without the expensive work around) stopped accepting them.

Only the in-person FEMA courses, I believe.

Many of the butt in seat FEMA courses and all of the NFA butt in seat courses are ACE recommended.
Its only FEMA "IS" that is looked at different by all three. This a great example of how all three of the Big 3 are different and have different standards (FEMA IS).

Did anyone ever request a waiver to the B&M CC thing? I am considering getting this started but I have 0 CC credits

Edit Reason: clarification
)
In my discussions with Pierpont, they say the 12 RA credits are a requirement. I was thinking a cheap way around this would be TECEPs and at least one UExcel for GPA.

I emailed Nancy Williams (Parks) and got an email back right away, she's super nice! Unfortunately...
"Twelve credits of the degree must be completed at a regionally accredited institution of some sort, including such entities as the Community College of the Air Force.
Thanks for pointing out that oversight on our web page. That's a State rule that I can't violate and should be sure to include it in the information that goes out. I'm putting that revision on my "to do" list for this week. So far, I've not had anyone submit documentation that didn't include at least those 12 credits, so I guess you're the first. I'd say "congratulations," but that just doesn't seem appropriate. Ha."
Sooooooo, that's not going to work for me but for anyone with the CC credits, have at it!

I was considering the same idea. Did you find out if this is a viable solution to the 12 RA credit requirement?
TIA!
