These are really old, free credits.  Back from FEMA days...

If I'm not mistaken, I don't think anyone has had any luck getting NFA to work with Credly. It was one of a few providers (like The Institutes) that isn't interested.

ACE really messed up with this pointless Credly move.

If you have any luck, please share, as I'm still missing my Credly badges, as I imagine everyone else is.

Few FEMA credits now have ACE credit. And those that do you tend to have to pay for at the school. Like EC accepts certain FEMA credits, but you have to pay EC for them. It's a ridiculous fee as well. I would just take current credits elsewhere. ACE credits all have expiration dates so those classes may have expired and no one will add them to Credly.

These are free credits that people used to have on their ACE transcripts - they're not trying to get new credits, these are old and people want them to show up on Credly.

I have ACE credits from Ed4Credit, The Institute, Kaplan, and JumpCourse, and can't get any of them onto my Credly transcript.  Luckily, I already have a degree, otherwise, I would be scrambling for more courses.  I'm sure there are people who have these plus others who would like their credit.  This thread is more about the ACE-to-Credly/Acclaim debacle rather than advice on which credits to get going forward.
