Free ways(e.g. TECEP)to register at TESU? Also say thank you to@bjcheung77@LevelUp - Felisa - 03-01-2024
Are there some free ways for me to register?
(I registered for a free TECEP last year. But I'm not sure it is valid now.)
I've finished my 2023 DEC term and this is the only term left so that I will graduate from TESU with my BACS degree in June this year.
I want to apply for a traditional master's program in Europe(Belgium or Netherland), I want to make my transcript look nicer, so I want to transfer some ACE credits to TESU, is there some cheap or free way for me to transfer?
Thanks to some kind-hearted guys on this forum, you gave me so much valuable advice last year.
Sadly I could just remember @bjcheung77 @LevelUP, thank you again!!! Also thanks for other guys' advice.

Here are a couple of links with some free or cheap options - the best free+quick option is TEEX Cybersecurity 101, 201 and 301, and the most efficient cheap option is a month or two of Sophia:

Another nice resume + transcript booster are the Google and IBM certificates on Coursera:

Examples:
Project Management - 9 credits, 6 upper level (credit as 3 PM classes at TESU)
Digital Marketing & E-commerce - 9 credits (credit as 3 marketing classes at TESU)
Data Analytics - 12 credits (credit as 1 R programming class and 3 IT classes at TESU)
Lastly, Saylor Academy is $5 per exam (proctored), if you are already familiar with the coursework.

Yes, I totally would recommend going the route mentioned above. Coursera, TEEX, Sophia.org & Saylor.org are your best bets for ACE credits.
