If it's not showing ACE or NCCRS I would assume that the course does not have the approval of either board. I just looked at the Biology courses and all are ACE approved.
ETA: I just looked at the Biology courses and all are ACE approved.
ETA: Same for Chemistry.
Same for Earth Science.
Environmental Science
So I'm not sure why the ACE accreditation wasn't showing for you. Maybe not scrolling down far enough? Even looking at the Online College Courses page on the Study website the courses I looked at are all ACE approved. Could you have not been looking at the college courses? They do have courses that aren't ACE approved but they're not listed with the college courses for credit.

They state that they have approval for a college credit recommendations, they just don't specify whether it is ACE or NCCRS in the place you said (though when I looked later at other courses it was exactly where you said; so it's just an inconsistency on the website I guess).
Some of the courses we were curious about state ACE or NCCRS in the syllabus as LevelUp pointed out. For the ones that didn't, I did confirm on the ACE website that they are ACE and the recommendations are current.
These are all courses that people have talked about successfully using for TESU on the board, so I knew they were likely approved for either ACE or NCCRS, and the only way they wouldn't have been approved was if the recommendation was expired. We were just looking to confirm that the courses in question were ACE and not NCCRS because ACE is more broadly accepted and my nephew wants to keep his options open.
Could be we were initially looking at the wrong description.
So the TL;DR is that got the info we needed. Thanks for your advice!

So weird about the inconsistencies! Fun with technology. Glad you were able to find the info.

Well you could always take a screen shot, then upload it to imgbb

Depending on how you navigate Study.com, we could see different things.

Either way, if you click on the Syllabus tab and scroll down to "How Credit Recommendations Work," you will see the credit recommendation.

imgbb is an image sharing site. It's used a lot for sharing images.
It's an alternative to saying the same thing ten times in a thread.
