I check out the ACE National Guide time-to-time and I stumbled upon The University of Louisville Digital Transformation Center (DTC) page:
"housed within the Office of Research and Innovation, is advancing digital equity and workforce readiness by expanding access to technology, digital literacy, and industry-recognized credentials. In partnership with Microsoft, Adobe, IBM, Google, and LinkedIn Learning, the DTC provides innovative training programs in areas such as IT certification, digital literacy, and, most notably, cybersecurity.
The Cybersecurity Workforce Program stands as a flagship initiative, offering flexible, modular learning pathways that accommodate learners at every stage—from those new to the field to seasoned professionals seeking advanced specialization. The program provides several options for professional development, including shorter bundles of 3–6 modules, intermediate tracks of up to 8 modules, or the full program of 23 modules. To ensure real-world application, the program incorporates industry-specific use cases in healthcare and logistics, along with specialized learning modules in areas such as artificial intelligence, forensics, and cryptography. This approach prepares learners for both immediate entry-level employment and long-term career growth through professional development in one of the nation’s most critical and fast-growing sectors".
From what I see, there are a lot of credits to be gained from this.
Does anyone have any experience with this? Seems like this is only recent with the start dates indicating ACE recommendation as of May 1st:

I also tried looking for what it costs, but I didn't find any information on it. Guess I'll have to apply for more information and see what the associate costs are.

Hello All,
I am going for a BS In CIS. I recently completed the Google Project Management Professional Certificate on coursera.
I was able to successfully transfer them in as I listed them below.
However I was told this cannot apply to my CIS degree? I sent a follow-up, because I think the advisor may have been confused.
This was the first reply I got to my request:
" The project management courses you mentioned cannot apply anywhere in your degree other than free electives. They cannot be used in your computer information systems section"
I'm asking and if there is a way to appeal, and also confirming with them that I am trying to put these into Professional Business Requirements section, not computer information systems section.
Anyone have advice?
Coursera Transfered credits
MAN-4380 Mastering Project Management
MAN-4370 Effective Project Management
MAN-2350 Intro to Project Management
Degree requirements:
MAN-2100 Principles of Management
MAN-3720 International Management
MAN-3730 Managerial Communications
Degree: Bachelor of Science
Majors: Computer Information Systems
Departments:Business Administration
Edit: I was told to escalate to the Deans office. So I've sent an email. I am gonna explore other degree options / Advisor appointment next week.

| StraighterLine and GPA at ETAMU |

Hey everyone! I saw someone mention that ETAMU actually pulled in grades from StraighterLine and that those grades counted toward their GPA. I’ve honestly never heard of that before — I thought StraighterLine credits usually transfer as “Pass” only.
Does anyone know if ETAMU still does this? I’ll be starting next term and just want to make sure how it works. If it really affects GPA, that sounds like a nice way to give it a little boost! ?
Thanks in advance for any info or personal experience! ?

Amity University is an Indian university gets mentioned every once in a while on this board because it is WASC-accredited and offers a bunch of distance programs for relatively cheap. But I'm wondering if anyone here has actually attended. If I remember correctly, in the past there were issues because even though teaching was online, tests had to be taken at test centers in India. Has that changed in recent years? Has anyone from a U.S.-type educational system successfully been admitted? (Even for MA programs, they require foreign students to provide proof of high school education not with a diploma, but with a O-Level or and A-Level certificate or equivalent, which I have never heard of being available in the U.S.)
