Another Coursera course? - rachel83az - 01-14-2023

Was browsing Coursera and this certificate came up as being eligible for credit: https://www.coursera.org/professional-certificates/salesforce-sales-operations But, if you click through to the page, you see nothing about it being worth credit. The FAQ even denies that it's worth credit. But it does have a corresponding entry in the National Guide: https://www.acenet.edu/National-Guide/Pages/Course.aspx?org=Pathstream&cid=fea9f980-6908-ed11-82e4-000d3a315529&oid=4b533fee-bf83-e911-a978-000d3a363daf

It's only one credit, unfortunately. If anyone has an active Coursera Plus membership, it might be worth trying out to see if you can actually get credit from it. Could be interesting.

It is ACE credit recommended!

These are the courses on Coursera that are eligible for ACE credit:

One would hope. But that page clearly hasn't been updated in a while. It's showing the Google IT certificate has already expired (it hasn't). And the Salesforce bears no mention of credit. So I'm definitely not sure if one can even get credit.

Coursera's search is pretty messed up. In their "credit eligible" search, I saw a couple of university classes that didn't seem to be part of any Master's or Bachelor's program, the search claimed to be for credit, but the page itself says no credit is available.

This one is interesting as there is a badge available for it on credly, unlike Meta - Intro to Soc Media Marketing, which says some places will accept the cert for 2 credits, but there is no way to transferor show it besides the cert itself.
